The 2026 Rabi onion harvest across Saurashtra has commenced under favorable agro-climatic conditions. Initial reports from agricultural mandis in Bhavnagar and Mahuva indicate a 8.4% increase in sowing acreage for white and pink onion varieties.
Average brix levels are testing above 17.5%, ensuring excellent dehydration yield and low scorched particle ratios for international export contracts.
Strategic Sourcing Advisory from Pure Foods Trade Desk
With global agricultural commodities experiencing currency fluctuations and ocean container repositioning shifts, international food blenders and soup manufacturers are strongly advised to initiate forward contract bookings between February and April 2026. This guarantees fixed-cost raw material allocation at peak dehydration Brix without exposure to monsoon-season price premiums.
