Nine oilseeds are the primary source of vegetable oils in the country, which are largely grown under rainfed condition over an area of about 26 million ha. Among these, soybean (34%), groundnut (27%), rapeseed & mustard (27%) contributes to more than 88% of total oilseeds production and more than 80 per cent of vegetable oil with major share of mustard (35%), soybean (23%) and groundnut (25%). The present study was undertaken the Price Analysis of oilseeds in APMC, Ahmednagar Maharashtra. The secondary data of arrivals and prices of major oilseeds (soyabean) was collected from APMC Ahmednagar (10 years from the years 2009-10 to 2017-18).

The price index for the month of May was the highest 85.47 per cent followed by August 85.47 per cent.
