TIANJIN: Exporters report that prices have risen due to severe shortages of lentils. However, traders report that there is a price but no market. The export market is sluggish, and the domestic market has sporadic sales. The domestic market is the main market, and it is difficult for traders to purchase low-priced raw materials. The port export volume has dropped by more than 40% year on year, the domestic lentil competitiveness is not strong, and the export market has not improved. Exporters are looking forward to an upturn in the lentil market in the new season of 2022. In terms of prices, farmers are reluctant to sell at low prices, and prices have risen. Exporters predict that the market downturn will continue. Be aware of changes in ocean shipping markets and prices.
