The superstitious black pepper imports are low, and due to the heavy rains in the significant black pepper-producing states, there are reports of heavy losses in the commodity. There’s no stock availability in North India. On the other hand, the goods coming from Vietnam are fewer, and thus these are the prime reasons that may give the black pepper chart a positive outlook.

Current Scenario

20-21% of black pepper crop is estimated to be damaged due to heavy rains in Kerala in September. Prices have also increased in the international markets, and importers are now reducing new deals. Under these circumstances, black pepper from Kerala can increase in domestic markets.

For the last 3-4 years, due to losses, the businessmen went on to sell black pepper at petite prices. On the other hand, pepper crops will arrive after a while. All old stock has been cut off. Apart from weddings of the current month, the consumption is expected to remain seasonal for the next 4 months.

Market will be bullish

The demand at previous prices has started coming out, and the crop in the major producing areas of Cochin, Shimoga, Coorg, etc., decreased the grain quality, due to which the gross production has been affected. The upcoming new crop is also likely to be damaged.

The reality is that the old stock of black pepper is significantly low. On the other hand, the prices of Indian black pepper are low compared to other countries, due to which the market will be bullish in the coming days considering the availability of goods.

The Pepper black 550 g/l prices were Recorded at $6,68 per kg FOB.
