Understanding nigella (Kalonji) Prices
nigella (Kalonji) is among the most volatile prices in this dataset, as most vegetables are. It swings with the monsoon and harvest calendar, cold-storage availability, fuel-driven transport costs and how well a perishable crop travelled to market — a glut at peak harvest can halve the nigella (kalonji) rate within weeks, and unseasonal rain can double it.
Rates are usually quoted per quintal (100 kg) at wholesale mandis, so a wholesale figure sits well below the retail price you pay per kilogram. The min-max band on each row is the arrival-quality spread on the day — fresh, firm produce at the top, older or bruised stock at the bottom. On this page, rates are quoted per kg.
Track it over several weeks on the trend chart rather than a single day: a one-day spike usually reflects thin arrivals at one market, not a real change in the crop.
