Dalian: Market participants reported slow sales of pumpkin seeds in summer, entering the traditional off-season for exports, but there was no downward trend in pumpkin seed prices. Prices are running high, and traders are confident in new arrivals. Some traders also reported that the planting area in the new season is facing a reduction, and the shortage of raw materials has led to price increases. Although the weather is gradually getting warmer, traders are not in a hurry to clear their positions and start to wait and see how the market changes. Good news for exporters if prices remain high. Exporters want to reduce procurement costs and improve the market. Pay close attention to market changes.
