MUMBAI – Prices of maize remained steady in Bihar's Purnea and Karnataka's Davanagere market today, in absence of strong demand from local stockists. Wheat prices in Kota, Rajasthan were also steady today, said market participants.
* MAIZE prices in Davanagere, was steady due to thin trade owing to continuous rain and higher moisture in the new crop, local trader Shiv Kumar said.
* Today, arrivals of the coarse grain were pegged higher at 12,000 bags (1 bag = 100 kg), from around 10,000 bags on Tuesday. Most of the stock contains moisture of over 30%, which lead to drop in demand, Kumar said.
