Prices of seasonal vegetables have fallen sharply over the past month, according to the Kalimati Fruits and Vegetable Market Development Committee. Between January 15 and February 15, cauliflower prices dropped by as much as 77.27 percent, with Terai varieties declining from Rs 88 to Rs 20 per kg. Local cauliflower prices fell from Rs 96 to Rs 22. Leafy vegetables such as spinach and mustard greens also saw reductions exceeding 60 percent. Increased seasonal supply in wholesale markets has driven the price decline, offering relief to consumers.
