Abstract

The uncertainty in production and supply of seed spices leads to fluctuation in their prices by seasonal and cyclical variations. The results indicated that coriander (57.02%), cumin (38.38%) and fennel (69.0%) crops were highly instable. The highest seasonal indices of arrivals and prices for coriander and cumin were found in March (358.53%), November (114.53%), October (111.29%) and April (392.98%), months respectively. In case of fenugreek and fennel, highest seasonal indices of arrivals and price were observed in the month of May (240.18%) December (110.95%), April (590.71%) and August (122.03%), respectively. The lowest variability was reported for fenugreek (6.32%) and fennel (12.27%) in Jodhpur market.
