Tianjin – Chinese Organic Lentils: Feedback from market participants is that domestic lentils have entered the market but prices are too high to be accepted by traders. While exporters adopted a wait-and-see attitude, Italian importers reported that prices were unacceptably high and that they expected prices to fall after purchase.
Prices are mainly affected by the decrease in cultivation area, production is very low, and it is estimated that prices will not decrease in the short term.
