Peshawar: In two months, the price of chilgoza has come down from Rs 6,400 per kg to Rs 3,600 per kg.


Two months ago, chalgoza was selling at Rs 10,000 per kg, which had come down to Rs 6,000 a kg a few weeks ago. Yesterday, it was further reduced by Rs 2,400 to Rs 3,600 per kg.


Local trader Saeed Khan says the main reason for falling prices is good crop production in Afghanistan and Waziristan. If it is not exported to China and other countries, prices could fall further.
