đ Market Overview: Hazelnut Prices & Trends
This week, the Turkish hazelnut market faced significant challenges, including political unrest, financial market disruptions, and extreme weather events, all of which heavily influenced market dynamics. Early in the week, prices slightly declined compared to the previous week, influenced by US tariff policies and ongoing protests. However, the Turkish Lira lost nearly four percent against the Euro due to these global influences. The situation escalated with weekend frosts potentially damaging crops, reminiscent of the 2014 crisis that spiked hazelnut prices to record highs.
