Some of the grain dealers at the market attributed the drop in prices to the improvement in the supply of the produce from farms to the markets in the state.

Kawu Hassan, a maize dealer said that prices were going down due to the increase in the supply of farm produce to the market.

Another dealer, Sabo Ibrahim, who corroborated earlier opinion, said prices would further go down as the produce flood to the markets.‎
