NEW DELHI – Prices of mustard fell in the benchmark market of Jaipur, Rajasthan, due to weak demand from domestic oil millers and crushers, while prices of soybean remained flat in Indore.

* MUSTARD was sold at 6,800-6,825 rupees per 100 kg, down 25 rupees from Thursday, despite arrivals being lower at 200,000 bags (1 bag = 84 kg) compared with 220,000 bags on Thursday.

* Even though India's mustard seed production is seen at a record high in 2021-22 (Jul-Jun), farmers are not bringing their produce to the market in large quantities as they are waiting for prices to rise further, said a trader with Manishankar Oils.

* SOYBEAN prices were steady at 5,800-6,000 rupees per 100 kg, and arrivals were unchanged at 1,500 bags, Indore-based trader N.K. Aggarwal said.

* Farmers are likely to bring more produce to the market when prices move upwards. However, it depends on the weather conditions, he said.

* Soybean prices are likely to trade in a range for rest of the week, Aggarwal said.  End
