Cumin prices in India are expected to surge by 30-35% to reach a five-year high of Rs 165-170 per kg in the 2021-2022 crop season due to a combination of factors. These include a decrease in production, low acreage, and crop damage caused by excessive rainfall. The acreage for cumin cultivation fell by 21% to 9.83 lakh hectares, with farmers shifting to more profitable crops like mustard and gram.

This situation is expected to result in substantial profits for farmers but may also lead to a decrease in cumin exports this fiscal year.
