PEPPER INDIA - IMPORT FEARS GRIP KOCHI´S PEPPER MKT

Kochi  July 03, 2020

Pepper prices declined by R2 per kg, with an average price realisation of R314 per kg, in Kochi on Tuesday 
Fear of pepper imports seem to have gripped the spot market in Kochi with the prices registering a R1/kg drop on Friday.

According to Kishore Shamji of Kishor Spices, there was pressure on local dealers to sell as there were more sellers in the market with imported pepper. The emerging situation has also forced Karnataka planters to liquidate their stock on the fear of imports even at MIP of R500 per kg, he said.

He pointed out that such a situation arose inspite of the government imposing minimum import price restrictions and the Customs Department being given powers in the last Budget to look into the price factor even for imports from bilateral countries.

The farming community fears that their existence will be at stake if such imports continue, he said. They requested the Prime Minister, Finance and Commerce Ministers to look into the matter seriously for the various representations submitted in this regard.

IPSTA Cochin Black pepper rate (R/kg): MG1: 326, ungarbled: 306; 500 G/L: 296 at an off-take of 26 tonnes.

Moisture content drags down pepper prices in Kochi

---

June 29, 2020
Pepper prices were down by ₹2 per kg in Kochi on Monday following the availability of higher moisture content pepper due to the present climatic conditions. The prices were at ₹310/kg on an off-take of 30 tonnes.
Kishore Shamji of Kishor Spices said that there are more sellers from Wayanad and Coorg for lower bulk density pepper, which, in turn, is influencing Idukki dealers as well to reduce the price. The domestic demand continues to be steady except from cities of Chennai, Mumbai, Delhi, Ahmedabad where the demand has slowed down.
According to him, the pressure from Sri Lankan exporters for dumping their produce in India overcoming the MIP restrictions fixed by the Government is still continuing. The absence of required action from authorities have forced more importers to go ahead with such shipments, violating the rules.
IPSTA Kochi black pepper rates (₹/kg): MG1-330; ungarbled-310; 500 G/L-300.
