About MandiRates
MandiRates (mandiratess.com) publishes dated, sourced mandi and retail prices for Pakistan's main crops — wheat first, then rice, sugar and cotton — for farmers, traders and households.
What makes it different from the price sites it competes with: every figure names its source and its date; where sources disagree, the range is shown instead of one settled number; and where no official row exists — Lahore and Multan mandi rates in the latest AMIS release — the page says so, rather than filling the gap from a competitor.
Who checks the prices

What the site is for
- Farmers deciding when and where to sell — mandi rates, revenue and break-even calculators, the sowing-season support price.
- Traders and mills comparing mandis — the Punjab table, the range, and the history page.
- Households checking atta before shopping — the 20kg bag average, the city split, and the household stock calculator.
What the site is not
- Not a live ticker: AMIS publishes mandi prices on weekdays, PBS publishes atta weekly. The site labels the latest release date on every page.
- Not a price predictor: no forecast is presented as fact; any future forecast will be a labelled confidence range.
- Not AdSense-approved yet, and the SaaS layer (alerts, API) has no live backend yet — see the pricing page for what is proposed and what is actually live.
