TIANJIN: During the Spring Festival, the lentil market was quiet, imported lentils did not arrive in Hong Kong, the export market was sluggish, and prices remained stable. At the beginning of the Spring Festival, the export market is challenging to improve, and domestic trade orders dominate the market. The domestic market is affected by lentil imports from Canada and Turkey, making domestic lentils uncompetitive.
Export orders can not meet the production needs of exporters, and enterprises are in trouble. Most manufacturers conduct domestic and foreign trade at the same time. Wholesalers, canners and food factories dominate the domestic market, and traders mainly rely on low-cost imported lentils to meet their production needs. In terms of prices, farmers have no willingness to sell at low prices, and prices are stable. Traders predict that the market downturn will continue. Pay attention to the sea freight and price changes in the production area.
