India Maize prices up on low supply.

Maize prices rose in the key wholesale Purnea market in Bihar due to declining supply. Good quality grain was sold up 10 rupees from previous close. Maize arrivals from the rabi crop are declining in key wholesale markets as the harvesting has ended and most of the farmers have sold their crops. In the benchmark Purnea market, supplies have been reduced to nearly 1,000-1,500 tonne daily, lower than the average 2,000 tonne last week.
