NEW DELHI – Jeera futures on the National Commodity and Derivatives Exchange fell today due to prospects of higher production, while coriander contracts gained due to tight supply from major producing regions, market participants said. 

 

* The most-active January JEERA contract was at 33,260 rupees per 100 kg, down 2.63% from the previous close. On Tuesday, the contract had hit a record high of 34,660 rupees per 100 kg. 

 

* Production of jeera is seen increasing 11.6% on year to 247,290 tn due to a rise in yield, data showed. The yield of jeera this season is likely to surge to 845.8 kg per ha from 721.0 kg per ha a year ago.

 

* CORIANDER prices were steady in key wholesale market of Kota, Rajasthan, at 8,500-8,800 rupees per 100 kg. 

 

* Coriander contracts on the domestic bourse rose to 8,020 rupees per 100 kg, up 0.4% from the previous day. Limited supplies from major producing regions supported prices, analysts said.  

 

* Fresh arrivals have started coming into Gujarat and will gather pace within 10-15 days, improving demand, traders said. 

 

TURMERIC contracts were down due to sluggish demand in the spot market. The most-active April contract was at 7,794 rupees per 100 kg, down 2.06% from the previous close.

 

* Arrivals are likely to rise after Jan 28, traders said. Farmers are expected to bring more of the commodity after Makar Sankranti, they added.  

 

* Following are the prices of the most-active contracts of spices as of 1707 IST:
