Unusually high: over twice what other mandis paid that day. It may be a mistake or other produce: check before you go. It isn't counted as the best.

You get: the latest price minus transport, about ₹1.50 a quintal per km for the first 50 km (tractor or pickup) and ₹0.70 after (truck), before the mandi's commission and charges. A small lot is costed as a hired pickup. Set your own rate above.

Distances are in a straight line from the middle of South West Garo Hills, not from your village. Transport is costed on about 1.3 times that, as roads wind.
