Tianjin: According to the feedback from exporters of the origin, organic lentils produced in 2020 are no longer available. The origin has begun to receive inquiries from traders and importers for organic lentils produced in 2021, and Italian importers have gradually begun to inquire about new organic lentils.
According to feedback from the origin, the price is difficult to predict, depending on the quality. The production area reported that reduced production exceeded expectations, and there was a phenomenon of panic buying once new products were launched, which led to price increases.
Due to the small planting area of China’s lentils, the yield is low, but the quality is good, and they are trendy in the Italian market. But it does not rule out the impact of imported goods. The export price of organic lentils produced in 2020 this week is FOB Dalian or Tianjin, at US$1,170/ton. However, high-quality goods are no longer available, and manufacturers are waiting to launch new goods.
