Mango prices fall sharply, farmers demand compensation
As mango farmers in Madurai district face a roadblock in selling their produce to traders due to the abysmally low prices fixed by them, they are demanding compensation or a solution for procurement of fruits at a better price. Though the farmers witnessed lower yields in the last few years, this year farmers enjoyed a good harvest, but they could not reap the benefits, said Jeeva, a farmer from Kesampatti near Melur. He added that the good cultivation could have benefitted them if a fixed and regularised procurement system was in practice. 'I have about 100 trees in three acres of land, and the cultivation was about 25 tonne this year,' he stated. But, the traders, who went to procure the produce wanted them for just Rs.4 per kg, he added. When the procurement price was about Rs.25 per kg last year, this year, the drastic drop in the price has put the farmers in a tight spot, Mr. Jeeva said. 'We hear that as big corporate which procure the kizhimooku variety of mangoes for juices and other products does want to procure them this year, the traders refuse to procure them at good price,' he stated. Opposing the dependence on corporates, he said that when the entire market was dependent on corporate companies, they would be the one to fix prices and manipulate them based on their needs. The Tamil Nadu Farmers Association has urged the Tamil Nadu government to immediately fix a Minimum Support Price (MSP) for mangoes to ensure that growers were not exploited by market forces. Further, they have also demanded compensation for farmers who have suffered losses due to the price crash. Madurai district agricultural officials cited the over production of mangoes as reason for the price crash. As the climate for the growth of mangoes was conducive, the farmers witnessed a good yield, but that has in turn reduced the demand for the fruit, the official stated. However, their demands for compensation and fixation of MSP would all be discussed with the government for further action, the official added.

Rupee strengthens 11 paise to close at 85.68 against U.S. dollar
The rupee pared initial losses and appreciated 11 paise to close at 85.68 (provisional) against the U.S. dollar on Friday (June 6, 2025), after the Reserve Bank cut the repo rate by a higher-than-expected 50 basis points to prop up growth. Forex traders said the rupee traded on a flat-to-positive note as the RBI surprised the market with a jumbo rate cut. Besides, the rate cut supported by a phased 100 basis points CRR reduction will lower the borrowing costs and boost growth. Moreover, a surge in the domestic markets supported the rupee at lower levels, with both the indices settling with gains of over 1%. At the interbank foreign exchange, the domestic unit witnessed heavy volatility. It opened at 85.91, registering a fall of 12 paise over its previous close. But soon pared the losses and saw an early high of 85.66 against the greenback. During Friday's (June 6, 2025) trade, the rupee also saw an intraday low of 86 and finally settled for the day at 85.68, up 11 paise over its previous close. On Thursday (June 5, 2025), the rupee snapped its two-day losing streak and closed 8 paise higher at 85.79 against the U.S. dollar. The RBI slashed the interest rate by 50 basis points on Friday (June 6, 2025), a third consecutive reduction, and unexpectedly reduced the cash reserve ratio (CRR) for banks to provide a major liquidity fillip to support the economy amid geopolitical and tariff headwinds. The central bank retained the GDP growth projection for the current fiscal year at 6.5%. It also changed its monetary policy stance to 'neutral' from 'accommodative', with Malhotra saying further action will depend on incoming data. 'The RBI policy decision today was pre-emptive and precise. The surprise CRR cut of 100bps despite a significantly high surplus liquidity signals a strong intent to fast-track transmission while the change in stance back to neutral reflects possible pause on future rate cuts,' Anurag Mittal, Head of Fixed Income at UTI AMC said. Meanwhile, the dollar index, which gauges the greenback's strength against a basket of six currencies, was trading higher by 0.25% at 98.98. Brent crude, the global oil benchmark, fell 0.26% to $65.17 per barrel in futures trade. 'Any further rate cut by the RBI may also pressurise the rupee. However, a positive tone in the domestic markets may support the domestic currency at lower levels. Investors may now focus on the non-farm payrolls report from the U.S. USD-INR spot price is expected to trade in a range of 85.40 to 86.25,' said Anuj Choudhary — Research Analyst at Mirae Asset Sharekhan. On the domestic equity market front, the 30-share benchmark index Sensex recovered the initial lost ground and closed 746.95 points, or 0.92% higher at 82,188.99, while the Nifty settled 252.15 points or 1.02% up at 25,003.05. Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) sold equities worth ₹208.47 crore on a net basis on Thursday (June 5, 2025), according to exchange data.
