Key Takeaway
- Factors affecting Rapeseed Ext. (Ex-Rajasthan) 38/2.5 prices: Prices are mainly influenced by rapeseed/mustard production, seed availability, mandi arrivals, crushing volumes and meal inventories in Rajasthan. As a by-product of oil extraction, rapeseed/mustard seed prices, mustard oil prices, extraction yields and crusher margins directly affect meal pricing and availability.
- Demand from poultry, dairy, livestock and aquaculture feed manufacturers is a key driver, while the relative prices of soybean meal, sunflower meal, groundnut cake, cottonseed meal and other protein ingredients determine its competitiveness in feed formulations. Domestic and export demand, international protein-meal prices, currency movements and freight costs can further influence prices.
- Additionally, protein content, fibre, residual oil, glucosinolate levels, moisture, quality specifications, seasonal availability, processor capacity, inventory levels, regional feed demand and trader activity contribute to short-term price movements.
