Cardamom prices fell by Rs 8.20 to Rs 739.30 per kg in futures trade today due to the adequate stocks availability in the physical market following higher supplies from the producing belts.

Besides, subdued spot demand also put pressure on cardamom futures here.

At the Multi Commodity Exchange, cardamom for delivery in October declined Rs 8.20, or 1.09%, to Rs 739.30 per kg in a business turnover of 302 lots.
