Agricultural commodities could come under pressure with arrivals of various kharif crops starting. However, the slow pace of arrivals could cap the fall in the prices.
Emergence of export demand could buoy commodities such as cotton, while prospects of improved sowing could put pressure on chana, a rabi crop. Maize is likely to be range-bound.
