Turmeric prices cross ₹23,000 a quintal in Erode
Turmeric traders in Erode reported that the commodity’s price has risen above ₹23,000 per quintal. The surge is linked to drought‑related shortages in key producing areas, including Maharashtra’s Marathwada region, Telangana’s Nizamabad district, and several locations in Tamil Nadu. Farmers are struggling to meet demand, and regional markets are seeing heightened volatility.
