Low demand weighs on barley prices in Jaipur.

Barley prices were down in Jaipur because of subdued demand from feed sector and stockists amid rising arrivals of the coarse grain. New crop arrivals of barley were estimated at 170,000 bags (1bag=85kg) compared with 150,000 bags. Supply of barley has been on a rise because new crop arrivals have gained pace. Barley inventories at warehouses more than doubled to 222 tonnes from 101 tonnes the previous day.
