What MSP means for your income

Minimum Support Price is the floor the government guarantees for notified crops. When the mandi price falls below MSP, government agencies step in and buy at MSP, protecting you from a crash. Knowing the MSP before you sow helps you choose crops, and knowing it at harvest tells you whether to sell in the open mandi or at a procurement centre. Compare each crop's MSP with its live mandi price before deciding.

MSP is announced twice a year by the Cabinet on the advice of the CACP: Kharif crops around June and Rabi crops around October. We track every announcement and update this page the same day, so bookmark it or get a WhatsApp alert above.
