Barley weakens on weak demand

Barley prices weakened by Rs 10 per quintal in lacklustre trade on the wholesale grains market today owing to slackened demand against sufficient supplies.
However, other grains held steady in thin trade.
Traders said slackened demand against sufficient supplies mainly kept pressure on barley prices.
In the national capital, barley declined by Rs 10 to Rs 1,420-1,425 per quintal.
