Govt bans exports of onion with immediate effect as prices rise in a month

15 Sep 2020 Evaluate

With an aim to increase availability and checking price of the commodity in the domestic market, the government has banned exports of onion on September 14, 2020, as prices increased in a month after excessive rainfall hit crops in southern states. The export of all varieties of onion was prohibited with the immediate effect.

India is the world's biggest exporter of onions, a staple of South Asian cooking. Countries such as Bangladesh, Nepal, Malaysia and Sri Lanka rely on Indian shipments. Wholesale prices in India's largest onion trading hub, Lasalgaon in the western state of Maharashtra, have nearly trebled in a month to Rs 30,000 per tonne ($408.52).

Meanwhile, Ajit Shah, president of the Mumbai-based Onion Exporters' Association said that excessive rainfall in India's southern states of Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh has damaged summer-sown crop and delayed harvesting in other states.
