What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Pigeon pea prices are rising sharply, nearing 2023-24 highs, due to lower domestic supplies and rising import costs. Concerns over the kharif pigeon pea crop in Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh, caused by adverse weather, are contributing to the supply crunch. Additionally, black gram prices have increased due to limited supplies from Myanmar and shipment delays at Chennai port.
