Fall in arrivals lift mustard seed prices in Jaipur

Prices of mustard seed in Jaipur rose due to a decline in arrivals and improved demand from oil millers and crushers. In the benchmark market of Jaipur, mustard seed was sold at 4,350-4,375 rupees per 100 kg, up 20-25 rupees. Arrivals of mustard seed in Rajasthan were estimated at 70,000 bags (1 bag = 85 kg) today, down 10,000 bags. Limited sale of mustard seed by government agencies in the local market also led to positive sentiment.
