Is there much new product?
Cumin Powder had 18 new listings in the last 30 days, fewer than the 23 the month before. When comparing similar offers, the listing date helps identify which one is closer to current market conditions. Check the listing date when evaluating two offers that appear similar.
Is the market busy?

The pool includes both long-standing sellers and a growing number of new entrants, which increases the range of options available. Newer suppliers have less history to evaluate, so buyers must verify their consistency before engaging. Review each supplier's listing history before reaching out.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Cumin Powder listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 29 October 2026 - 135 active listings, 5 buyer requests, 16 source documents, and 98 supply observations from the last 90 days. External export benchmarks are cited separately and never mixed into Freshdi figures.
Price and MOQ ranges are the interquartile range - the middle half of quotes, a quarter below and a quarter above - with the median reported alongside. A Cumin Powder type is priced only once it holds at least 5% of supply price quotes and 3 priced listings with a real range; below that it is not listed. Buyer prices are compared only once there are at least 5 of them.
All prices are FOB, in USD per metric ton; quotes on other Incoterms are converted to a FOB equivalent. Freshdi does not hold a CIF price series for Cumin Powder, so no landed-cost comparison is possible from this data.
Product freshness counts listings created or updated. Supplier activity counts sellers by their last update. The two are different measurements and will not agree.
Freshdi reprocesses market data every hour, with one snapshot a day for trends. This page's figures, certification coverage included, refresh every 14 days on a rolling 365-day window.
