Pepper prices falling due to increasing global supply

From the beginning of the year until now, pepper exports recorded a sharp decline in almost all markets, but there were positive signs in the EU.  According to the latest information from the Department of Agricultural Product Processing and Market Development, in the first 8 months of 2019, the estimated export volume of pepper was 220,000 tons (561 million USD), up 27.4% in volume but decreasing 3.8% in value over the same period in 2018. Notably, the average export price of pepper in the period reached 2,556 USD / ton, down 24.5% over the same period in 2018.
The Import and Export Department (Ministry of Industry and Trade) said pepper prices were falling due to increasing global supply. However, in Vietnam, the quality of pepper is affected by excessive use of chemicals and pesticides, so the price is lower than that in other countries.
In the past 2 years, many countries such as Brazil, India, and Indonesia have become competitors to Vietnam in terms of output and quality. In particular, Brazilian pepper is better quality with 80% of the world market selling organic standards.
While the price of pepper is still very low, the cost of producing pepper tends to increase. Vietnam's pepper production cost in 2018 increased by at least 10% compared to 2017. The selling price of pepper decreased by over 30%, causing huge difficulties for pepper growers.
The Agro Processing and Market Development Department said in the first 8 months of 2019 pepper exports to Germany increased: in the first 7 months, reached 8,000 tons, equivalent to USD 23.4 million, up 53.3% in volume and 14.4% in value over the same period in 2018. Germany increased imports of pepper to serve the growing pepper processing industry in this country.
The successful signing of the Vietnam-EU Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA) will be a good opportunity for Vietnam's pepper industry.  As part of the agreement, EU countries commit to eliminating tariffs on pepper products (HS code 09.04) right after it comes into effect. Opportunities for Vietnamese export will increase due to the agreement.
Typically, Metalaxyl chemical residues were found on pepper imported into the European market. Previously, the maximum permitted amount of Metalaxyl chemicals on pepper imported into the EU was 0.1 ppm, but the European Commission (EC) has requested to adjust this level to 0.05 ppm. By 2018, only 46% of Vietnam's pepper has met the export standards. Besides, Vietnam still faces the risk of origin of imported pepper products from third markets. Vietnam imports pepper from other producing countries, accounting for about 10% of Vietnam's total pepper exports, mainly for processing.
In the domestic market, prices of pepper fluctuated in August. Compared to the previous month, prices of pepper in Dak Lak, Dak Nong, Gia Lai and Ba Ria Vung Tau decreased by VND 500 / kg to VND 43,500 - 45,500 / kg. Pepper prices in Dong Nai decreased by VND 1,000 / kg to VND 43,000 / kg.

REPORT ABOUT PRESENT BLACK PEPPER MARKET & TRENDS

IN THE LAST DAYS RE GOT TO KNOW SOME REPORTS ABOUT BLACK PEPPER MARKET.

INTERESTING READING FOR THE ONES OPERATING IN THIS TRADE.

Vietnam – Although fresh demand from the world market is missing, prices are holding steady to firm.
A record quantity has been exported: March (37,000 tons), April (36,000 tons) and May
(37,000 tons) bringing a total volume to approximately 143,000 tons till May 2019;
36% more exports than 2018 in similar period.

We have not observed such stunning export figures in our 26 years of trading history. Knowing 8 more months to new crop,
farmers and dealers are now in a comfortable position to hold remaining quantities without panic. This is very much evident from arrival of goods and gradual rise in raw pepper prices.  

Their comfort level will increase more once 60-70% of crop is out of Vietnam.
In May, raw prices remained between 44000 to 46000 dong/kg.
China keep supporting the pepper market and their pepper imports have risen to 70% from 2018 followed by USA and India to 27% and 10% respectively.

Buyers keep pushing for lower prices. We have not seen very aggressive offers for future shipments as all of them feel more risk than reward.
Destination markets need to consume extra volume imported during last 3 months.
Not to forget that combined Middle East and Asia has become one of the largest pepper
consumer market in recent years and their constant support to origin keep prices steady.

Limited numbers of orders in hand with exporters do indicate that coverage for second half is yet to come.
Low pepper prices and higher maintenance cost are pushing few farmers to cut trees and plant some other commodities.
Farmers in Chu Puh and Chu Sê districts—two key pepper growing areas who had invested for a dozen of pillars that covered one hectare are now selling the same number of pillars in lower cost as many of them have gone bankrupt.
Add to pot, young trees are also dying due to poor care of farmers, poor maintenance of current
vines and virtually no new plantation, crop size will reduce gradually while world consumption in general increases by 3-4% annually.
Expect volatile days in 2020 and beyond.
Imports to India via Nepal may halt due to 100% additional duty (from 10-20%) has been imposed recently in their annual budget presented in end May.

Indonesia – No bad news so far. Expecting similar or slightly better crop than 2018. However, no selling pressure or any aggressive pricing from numbered top-class shippers.

Brazil – It is interesting to note that for the first time, Brazil is not discounting to Vietnam prices. In fact, quotes from Brazil are now in line with Vietnam. This firmness is attributed to strong currency and depleted inventories.
Brazil too have exported large volume in the last 5 months (approx. 40,000 tons).
Their new crop from Para region to start in August – September.
We have not seen any selling pressure yet. First class shippers prefer to stay away from sharp bids.
If Vietnam continues to be firm, world demand may shift to Brazil which may help Brazil to stabilize further.
In general, there is resistance at low prices.
Demand from Europe has slowed down due to the new import regulation on salmonella and at the same time volume from Vietnam has increased considerably for European ports.
