According to the information received, due to the second flood in Assam, the situation had worsened, but due to the recent rains, the situation of flood has improved and if all is equal then the roads will be opened soon and the business activities will be on track. For some time in the Kochi Mandi, Kerala, Dry Ginger has stopped at the pre-staged level of US$ 1800 to 1900 rupees per mt.. Even after this speed in Dry Ginger, there is no regular arrivals in Kochi Mandi. On the other hand, in Karnataka's mandis, its price has risen to US$1750 per mt. from $1650 per mt.

Similarly, the international price of Indian dry Ginger is known to be made at the level of one year prior to $3.29 a kilogram. On the other hand, the US dollar has recently weakened against the rupee. This is an attractive level for exporters. In recent years, it has been observed that there is a steady decline in the production of Dry Ginger in the country as the interests of producers / farmers are continuously decreasing. Another major reason for this is also the huge shortage of workers. It is said that due to lack of labor in Kerala labor costs have increased rapidly, but the price of Dry Ginger has not been proportionally increased.
