I am Guru Prasad, Papaya farmer from Hiriyur, Chitradurga district.
I request all Papaya farmers to share their contact numbers and as well as the reliable Papaya buyers to whom they are selling their harvest. This will help similar farmers like me to be well informed about the current market price, terms of purchase. Mutual discussion also helps to share cultivation practices atleast during emergencies.
I hereby start with the contact of the buyer in my area (Hiriyur) to whom I sell my harvest. Below are the details:
Name: Dayanand
Contact: 8139966188
He purchased my harvest last week at 7 Rs/Kg for fruits with upto 4 yellow lines. He does not purchase ripe fruits which are completely yellow. I request other farmers as to what they do with the ripened fruits (which still have 3 to 6 days of shelf life). I sold these fully yellow fruits recently at 3 Rs/Kg which I feel is too less a price. Kindly advice.
I’ve 1.25 acres Papaya farm in Anantapur dist(AP) which is grown with natural farming methods. Harvesting is expected from Jan-16. I’m in search of buyers in my area.
what is the present rate of papaya going around your area. I have regular supply of 20 Tons from my farm. Can anyone let me know the price. If anyone is interested let me know the price.
If the quantity is 20 tons which as per me is bulk and may logistically workout to send to far off places, segregate the bigger fruits with one yellow stripe and explore sending it to Mangalore which may fetch better price of 8 to 15 Rs/kg. Smaller ones(less than 1.5 kg) can be sent to Bangalore market which may fetch around 5 to 10 Rs.). You need to personally visist the market/buyers and decide on terms. You can try to sell the fully ripened fruits to some factory buyers who make jams etc at lesser price of 2 to 5 Rs/kg.
Locally I am selling at Rs, 10 . Unless I get 15-20 I won’t be able to sell Bangalore or mangalore markets. My produce js organic so looking for good price. Right now I am selling normal price.

Hi guru sir

Amazing initiative Mr. Guruprasad. Really appreciate the concern.
I am also from Maskal, Hiriyur. I am now starting a new project with about 150 acres in Hiriyur. I would like to plant papaya in 5 acres to start with. Look forward to meet you soon.
Also, just to add to your idea, can we start to have a Whatsapp group of all papaya growers which could help us to do some precision farming.
Thanks for the compliment Vishwanath & wish you all the best.
I am all for a whatsapp group as long as we also publish here on farmnest our learnings or any information that could help other fellow farmers.
Look forward to meet you. Thanks.
