March 2026

In 2025, volume sales of vegetable rose despite climate volatility, with erratic rainfall and prolonged winters disrupting harvests and causing temporary price spikes, particularly for crops like tomatoes. Government interventions, including buffer stock releases and the Price Stabilisation Fund, helped moderate retail fluctuations, while the rapid growth of quick commerce and digital grocery platforms reshaped urban supply chains through faster farm-to-consumer logistics.
