Tomato price hits ₹50/kg due to rain, rates may remain firm for 15 days
The New Indian Express Madurai
|July 24, 2025
TOMATO prices have more than doubled in many parts of the state as the prices in the wholesale markets, including Koyambedu in Chennai and Palacode in Dharmapuri, range between ₹40-45.
TOMATO prices have more than doubled in many parts of the state as the prices in the wholesale markets, including Koyambedu in Chennai and Palacode in Dharmapuri, range between ₹40-45. Traders said that the price has been increasing gradually for the past week due to a shortfall in production which has been impacted by rains in parts of Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh.
Tomatoes are cultivated throughout the year in Dharmapuri on 12,000 hectares. However, the cultivation area sharply decreases, falling to 1,500 hectares, during the monsoon season as farmers fear rain will damage the crops. At present, Dharmapuri is receiving its share of summer rains due to which the production has decreased, leading to a hike in prices.
