Since Amrapali fruit is small, does it sell at a lower rate? Is there steady demand for it, or should I plant a bigger-fruited variety for better price?
Amrapali usually sells at a moderate per-kilo rate, generally below premium large-fruited or GI varieties because its fruit is small and the market often pays by size and brand. However, it has steady demand for table use, juicing and processing, its deep colour and sweetness are liked, and its regular high per-acre yield can make total income per acre competitive even at a modest rate. It is also late season, which can help timing. If your priority is the highest per-fruit price and a branded premium, a large GI variety may earn more per kilo but with alternate bearing risk. If your priority is dependable annual volume from limited land, Amrapali's reliability and yield often win on total income. Confirm current local rates for Amrapali versus other varieties in your mandi before deciding, and consider mixing varieties to balance price and reliability.
Amrapali rate per kg is lower but I get a lot of fruit every year, so my acre income is steady. I sell some for juice too.
