Persistent rain raises vegetable prices in Pune
In Pune, India, there has been a lot of rain lately.
This rain has made some vegetables more expensive, especially leafy ones like dill, coriander, fenugreek, and spinach.
The prices of these vegetables have gone up by about 30%.
For example, a bunch of dill now costs Rs 30-35, which is Rs 10-15 more than last week.
However, the prices of fruits have not changed much.
Traders at the Gultekdi wholesale market say this is because the rain has affected the supply of vegetables but not fruits.
Persistent rain in Pune has increased wholesale vegetable prices by up to 30%.
Fruit prices have largely remained stable or eased.
Leafy vegetables like dill, coriander, fenugreek, and spinach are the most affected.
Wholesale prices of dill have risen to Rs 30-35 per bunch, coriander to Rs 40-45, fenugreek to Rs 30-40, and spinach to Rs 35-40.
