Prices of plantation crops gain on adverse climatic conditions in 2024

 Adverse climatic conditions took its toll on India’s productions of important agri commodities like tea, coffee, cardamom and rubber during the year 2024. However, the prices of tea and coffee, the country’s two most popular brews, witnessed buoyancy on the back of lower productions mainly due to unfavourable climatic conditions.

Unfavourable weather conditions also reduced yields for pepper and cardamom and that led prices of the two spices to remain steady throughout 2024. Moreover, robust global demands further contributed to the uptick in prices.

Coffee industry

Indian coffee industry benefitted to a great extent from the surging trend in the global prices during 2024, which was largely driven by the tight supplies from large producers such as Brazil and Vietnam among others, where erratic climate impacted the output. The buoyant price trend is seen continuing into the new year.

Higher buying from European customers such as Italy and Germany led to the shipments exceeding the 4 lakh tonnes mark during the calendar year 2024.

Pepper and cardamom reported steady prices throughout 2024 and factors such as unfavourable weather conditions, reduced yields, and robust global demand contributed to the uptick in prices, according to R Sanjith, Secretary General, UPASI.

Cardamom production is expected to decline during 2024-25 due to severe drought like situation from January to May last year with no rains for nearly 122 days and the production would be in the range of 18,000-20,000 tonnes. With lower yields expected from India and Guatemala, the market is bracing for supply constraints as demand gears up, Sanjith said.

The anticipated shortfall could boost demand for Indian cardamom, creating export opportunities in Gulf markets for their upcoming festive season. Average price for the crop season August- October, 2024 was Rs 2253.14 per kg, an increase of Rs 427.49 per kg compared to the corresponding period of 2023.

Mainly due to increase in shipments to Iran and Iraq, tea industry has also witnessed higher export despite geopolitical tensions. According to exporters’ associations, export of the brew could be in the range of 245-260 million kgs in 2024 compared with 231.69 million kgs last year.

“In the last year we were able to capture a lot of overseas markets from Sri Lankan exporters, particularly the Iraq market. And that was a real increase in 2024. 2025 also looks promising,” South India Tea Exporters Association Chairman Dipak Shah said.

Geopolitical tensions

The geopolitical tensions coupled with the disruption in key maritime routes such as the Suez Canal due to the rebel attacks did inflate the transportation cost for exporters, leading to higher commodity prices.

As per Spices Board estimates, Indian pepper production during 2024 was at 124000 tonnes, which was higher by 8,000 tonnes compared to previous year, while 2025 crop is estimated at 77.500 tonnes.

Domestic pepper price today January 1, 2025 keeps increasing

 

 

Domestic pepper price today January 1, 2025, online pepper price, Dak Lak pepper price, Dak Nong pepper price, Binh Phuoc pepper price, Gia Lai pepper price, daily pepper price 1/1.

Domestic pepper price today

Today's pepper price was updated at 4:30 am on January 1, 2025 as follows, domestic pepper price has increased and decreased slightly compared to the previous trading session and is anchored at a fairly high level. Currently, the average pepper purchase price in localities is 146.900 VND/kg.

Specifically, pepper prices today are at Gia Lai continued to increase by 500 VND/kg compared to the previous trading session, currently the local purchase price is 146.500 VND/kg. Similarly, pepper prices in localities such as the province Binh Phuoc, Ba Ria - Vung Tau, Dak Nong, Dak Lak is anchored at a fairly high level and is purchased at 147.000 VND/kg.

 

Experts predict that pepper prices will continue to enter a new upward cycle in 2025 due to many factors. First, global supply is reduced due to the impact of drought and adverse weather. Second, high transportation costs also push up product prices. Finally, the US Federal Reserve (FED)'s interest rate cut is expected to stimulate economic activity in major importing countries, potentially increasing demand for Vietnamese pepper in key markets such as the US and EU.

The US, Germany and UAE markets continue to be Vietnam's largest pepper export markets, accounting for 44,1% of the market share. This shows the stability and development potential of these markets. However, China's sharp reduction in pepper imports from Vietnam in 2024 has been surprising. The main reason is believed to be that China has stockpiled goods in advance, leading to a short-term decline in demand.

The Vietnam Pepper and Spice Association (VPSA) expects the Chinese market to buy more actively next year. This year, China only bought about 10.000 tons, while other markets have bought heavily, reducing purchasing pressure right at the beginning of the season.

According to experts, the impact of the prolonged drought will delay the 2025 pepper harvest by about 2 months, causing difficulties in supplying the market. Therefore, import markets have increased their purchases to meet the demand until the first quarter of 2025.

According to VPSA, Vietnam's pepper exports to China in the first 11 months of the year (including official and unofficial channels) reached 9.661 tons, down 83,6% over the same period.

This result caused China to fall to the 6th position as Vietnam's largest pepper export market, from the number one position last year. At the same time, China's proportion in Vietnam's total pepper exports also decreased to 4,1% from 24% in the same period.

Of which, the main reason was imports from Indonesia - the largest pepper supplier to China, reaching 5.141 tons, up sharply by 41,7% over the same period last year and accounting for 56,2% of the market share.

Next, imports from Vietnam reached 3.021 tons, up 3,8% over the same period and accounting for 31,2% of market share.

In addition, many farmers are switching to more profitable crops such as durian and coffee, reducing the pepper growing area and affecting total output.
