Yes. In early November 2026 mustard is trading well above its ₹6,200 MSP, soybean is near ₹7,000 against a ₹5,708 MSP, and wheat in Delhi is around ₹2,850 against ₹2,585, so farmers holding stock are getting market rates above support prices.
📌 Key points
- Mustard in Bharatpur trades above ₹7,200/quintal vs ₹6,200 MSP for 2026-27.
- Next season's mustard MSP is ₹6,613/quintal.
- Soybean is around ₹7,000/quintal vs ₹5,708 MSP, up about 55% year on year.
- Wheat in Delhi is near ₹2,850/quintal vs ₹2,585 MSP; next MSP ₹2,610 from April 2027.
- Government wheat stocks exceed 45 million tonnes.
Why are oilseed prices so far above MSP this year?
India imports a large part of its cooking oil and global oil prices are elevated, so domestic crushers in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat are paying more for mustard and soybean.
For soybean, steady demand from oil mills has kept bids firm. Government procurement under PM-AASHA is barely needed when the market already pays more than the support price.
Why is wheat above MSP despite large government stocks?
The Food Corporation of India holds a surplus of more than 45 million tonnes, yet wheat in Delhi is trading around ₹2,850 because private flour mills are buying ahead of the lean months. The MSP for wheat is ₹2,585 for the current season and ₹2,610 from 1 April 2027.
Open Market Sale Scheme releases by the Centre could cool prices later in winter, so stockists should not assume rates will keep climbing.
What should traders and farm sellers watch next?
Watch rabi mustard sowing in Rajasthan, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh: a big acreage jump would weigh on prices by February. Also watch edible oil import duty decisions and soybean arrivals in major mandis.
Compare your local mandi with the national average using FastBuySale before booking transport.
Does MSP still matter when market prices are higher?
Yes. MSP acts as a safety net if prices crash after a bumper harvest. Prices can turn quickly, so not every crop or season will stay this strong. Keep your registration on state procurement portals active even in a strong year.
