Crops Damage In Heavy Rains Causes Vegetable Prices To Skyrocket In Bengal Cities

New Delhi: Continuous rains over West Bengal, coupled with the slowing down of the supply chain, have led to prices of vegetables skyrocketing in Kolkata markets, as well as in several other cities and towns across districts.
In Kolkata markets, a cauliflower, which was being sold at Rs 30 a few days ago, is now being sold at Rs 50 to 60. Pointed gourd is being sold at least Rs 50 per kg, as against Rs 30 a few days back. A large-sized brinjal is being sold at Rs 100 per kg, while being sold at Rs 60 some days back. Farmers' associations and West Bengal Task Force members blamed the phenomenon on a prolonged spell of heavy rain, which damaged locally produced crops.
State task force member Rabindranath Kolay, however, claimed that the prices have already come down. "The day before yesterday, we visited the markets to inspect the price of vegetables. The prices that had gone up have come down a little bit. The heavy rains have damaged a large quantity of crops. Therefore, the supply chain has been hit, resulting in the rise of vegetable prices. However, efforts are on to bring it further down," he said.

Cucumber is being sold for Rs 80 per kg, and tomatoes are being sold for Rs 70 per kg in the Kolkata markets.
