Mandis Despite the decrease in the arrival of mustard in the country today, due to the lack of buying in front of the cheap wholesale price of imported oils, the prices of most oilseeds, including mustard, closed showing a decline in the edible oil-oilseeds market of the country on Tuesday. Due to the high price, the prices of groundnut oil-oilseeds closed at the previous level amid weak business. There is a decline in Chicago and Malaysia Exchange. Expert sources in the market said that due to the cheapness of only the wholesale price of imported edible oils, the business sentiment of the market has deteriorated and the prices of all oilseeds are under pressure. Due to some festive demand, imported oils are also being consumed. But as the cost of indigenous oilseeds according to the minimum support price (MSP) is much more expensive than these imported oils, the buyers of these indigenous oils are very low.
Strange problem facing farmers
The situation is such that today the arrival of mustard has decreased from the earlier 2.60 lakh bags to about two lakh bags, despite which a decline was registered due to less buying of mustard. He said that the financial condition of the traders has become so bad that they are not able to keep stock of any edible oil. Sources said that what is the benefit of increasing the production of such oilseeds, when the stock of mustard of last almost two years is still left. Due to high production and productivity in foreign countries, the production of de-oiled cake (DOC) is also good there.
Plant owners benefit from DOC sales
Plant owners benefit from DOC sales and they are interested in buying soybean from the farmers of the country. But in the current situation, it is difficult to consume even the indigenous DOC due to its high price. Sources said that traders were hoping that after the general elections, the government might take some measures like increasing the import duty to control cheap imported edible oils, but now they have lost hope. No one seems to be listening to the situation.
