Erode and Nizamabad, over the same period last year because of a slack demand.<\/p>\n<p>Reports have said that prices have reduced by\u00a0<span class=\"WebRupee\">\u20b9<\/span>8-10 per kg in Nizamabad and by\u00a0<span class=\"WebRupee\">\u20b9<\/span>8 per kg in Erode over the past two months.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe demand is less right now, and will pick up from April 15 onwards,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Motta estimates the 2018-19 crop to be in the region of 90-92 lakh bags of 70 kg each, higher than previous year\u2019s 71-75 lakh bags.<\/p>\n<p>In Nizamabad, turmeric prices are stuck between<span class=\"WebRupee\">\u20b9<\/span>40-60 per kg, mainly due to the higher moisture content in the produce being brought by farmers to the markets, while in Erode the prices has been staggering at around\u00a0<span class=\"WebRupee\">\u20b9<\/span>55-72 per kg.<\/p>\n<p>The President of Erode Turmeric Merchants Association said that demand has been slow this year. It comes in from January 15 and peaks during March. But 2019 has seen a drop in demand for turmeric.<\/p>\n<p>This year however the turmeric crop is higher as they has been a rise in acreages and the adoption of high yielding varieties by farmers. Water shortages still continues to be a problem affecting yields.<\/p>\n<p>As prices at the start of the season were ruling lower, officials of the Telangana agriculture department has coaxed the Commission for Agricultural Costs and Prices (CACP) to include turmeric under the MSP scheme.As a cash crop, turmeric is not currently among those 25 crops for which a support price is declared by the Centre. The Vice-President of the All India Kisan Sabha, said the prevailing prices are not a lucrative option for the growers as the cost of cultivation is steadily going up.<\/p>\n<p>It has been an urge that the centre consider turmeric among the list of crops for which the MSP has declared.
