Peas slip on sluggish demand

In restricted activity, prices of peas declined by Rs 200 per quintal at the wholesale market today owing to slackened demand against sufficient stocks position.
Elsewhere, other pulses moved in a narrow range in scattered deals and settled at the last levels.
Traders said tepid demand from retailers mainly attributed the fall in prices of peas.
They said, however, trading activity remained restricted in view of crash crunch following the government's action of demonetising Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 currency notes.
In the national capital, peas white and green fell by Rs 200 each to Rs 2,700-2,725 and Rs 3,000-3,100 per quintal, respectively.
