Traders expect tomatoes to stay cheap for two weeks.

Arrivals at the fictional Sevli mandi were 2,800 tonnes of tomatoes on Monday, up from 1,900 a week ago, mainly from two neighbouring districts. Onion stocks from last season are running low.

Retail prices are about 30 percent above the mandi price. All numbers on this page are samples.

This is a demo story: every name, place, organisation and figure in it is fictional.
