Planning your Sunflower crop
Sunflower (सूरजमुखी) is grown mainly in Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Maharashtra. It is a Kharif crop, usually sown in Jun-Jul and harvested in Oct-Nov. The guaranteed MSP this year is ₹8,343 per quintal, and today's mandi price is around ₹9,000. Use the planner above to see what your field could earn, then decide where to sell.
Tip: mandi prices are usually lowest right at harvest, when everyone sells at once. If you can store safely, selling a few months into the lean season often fetches a better rate. Track the live Sunflower price, check the MSP details, and watch the weather before sowing and harvesting.
