Here, during the Yatra, ass and other animals are brought to sell them. Since the number of asses is depleting fast over time, they are in great demand and that is why they are high-priced. Traders come to participate in this fair from Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, and Gujarat and for Shahad Bazar, many traders come even from Telangana.

This year, there is a dearth of Kathewadi ass and their demand is more. The fast-falling numbers of their population have increased their demand.

In Pathardi taluka’s Marhi Yatra, one out of every three asses presents here is Panjabi hybrid ass. And they are fetching a price of ₹100,000. Many people were found desperate to buy this ass. So for those who have Kathewadi, around 130 animals were purchased well before they could reach the Yatra. The trader who had brought 300 animals, by the time he reached the Yatra, had only 130 animals left with him. The demand for ass has phenomenally increased.
