markets shown increasing trend in arrivals and prices in the later periods. Arrivals of potato
was maximum during September and November in Bangalore market whereas in other
markets it was during February and March. Prices of potato found highest during off season
and lowest during harvest period. Arrivals of onion, ragi and groundnut found maximum
during harvesting months. Groundnut prices remained unchanged irrespective of increase or
decrease in the arrivals. Uneven cycles were found in all the markets for all the commodities.
