Dalian: In the past two weeks, market sales have been slow, but the price of raw materials for pumpkin seeds has been stable. Market participants reflected that traders were trying to support prices. Some traders also reported that the new season’s planting area has decreased, and the shortage of raw materials has led to price increases. Although the weather is getting warmer, traders are not in a hurry to clear their positions at the moment and are in a wait-and-see position to see how the market changes. Good news for exporters if prices remain high. In addition, European and American sea freight stopped falling. Exports are subject to change. Exporters want to reduce procurement costs and improve the market. Pay close attention to market changes.
