CHENNAI: Jasmine yield has decreased due to insect attacks in recent days and as a result, the supply of jasmine in the flower market has reduced.
As a result, jasmine flower, which was sold for 800 rupees a few days ago, is now selling for 2,000 rupees per kg in the Sankarankovil flower market.
Traders said that the price of flowers may go up further on auspicious days.
