Traders predict that if this trend continues, then prices will come down providing respite to the common man
Finally respite seems to be in sight for the common man who has been paying through the nose for vegetables. On Friday, approximately 600 heavy vehicles brought in the greens from different places in Maharashtra, Karnataka and Gujarat at the Agricultural Produce and Marketing Committee (APMC) wholesale vegetable market in Vashi. This was a considerable rise as compared to the 518 trucks and tempos that entered the market last week.
