Garlic prices surge in Bengaluru markets; 50% drop in supply reported

Garlic prices have increased in Bengaluru's wholesale and retail markets based on quality and size. The primary reason for the price hike is a 50% decline in garlic supply at the APMC market. At the wholesale level, the price for a quintal of good quality, large garlic has risen from ₹24-₹25 thousand to ₹27-₹28 thousand. Retail prices show an increase of ₹20 to ₹30 per kg compared to previous rates.
