Dumping pepper into domestic market a false propaganda
Dumping of imported Pepper into domestic market is a false propaganda to buy pepper at lower prices by a section of the trade shouldn't be taken seriously at all.
The country has imported 6700 mt of Black pepper in the first 6 months comprising of 3000 mt for value added grinding and sterilization and 3700 mt for oil and oleoresin extraction.
The average import is only 500 mt a month and in a market where there is a very tight supply situation and squeeze and prices expected to pick up from august and hit Rs 150/- kg it is senseless to dump this meager quantity into domestic market to depress prices.
The country which is consuming 50000 mt of black pepper every year ( about 4175 mt a month) according to some expert statisticians should have the minimum common sense that even if the entire 3000 mt is dumped by all importers the local prices are not going to be affected as the quantity is very meager to depress prices.
Dumping news is so far emanating only from one source all these days and it is a false news to scare growers and traders and buy pepper at cheaper prices according to major export firms.
With the inside news of disparity between India and Indonesia narrowing down and Vietnam slowly fading out of the Global Pepper scenario it was the move from some unethical traders propagating dumping of imported pepper into domestic market to depress prices and this news should be completely ignored according to All India Spice Exporters forum Vice chairman Mr. Jojan Malayil. Mr Malayil added that farmers/traders should sell only when they need money that badly as the Importing countries coverage is naked for the last quarter and India will get a chance to sell its balance pepper at premium prices.
Current prices in other origin are as follows : Brazil Asta usd 2350 fob Belem Indonesia Asta usd 2550-2600 fob panjang Vietnam asta usd 2600-2650 fob Hcmc and Indian mg-1 asta usd 2750-2800 pmt fob cochin

STRONG DOMESTIC DEMAND, TIGHT SUPPLY POSITION KEEPS INDIAN READY PEPPER MKT HOT
STRONG DOMESTIC DEMAND, TIGHT SUPPLY POSITION KEEPS INDIAN READY PEPPER MKT HOT

Kochi, May 31
Strong domestic demand and tight supply position is keeping the spot black pepper prices in India above the June delivery prices of the
exchanges.
Spot price of MG1 was at Rs12,600 a quintal (100 -kg) at the weekend close on Saturday where as the June delivery price at the weekend close was Rs12,320 a quintal.
Availability is said to be very thin.
Domestic buyers from north Indian markets were meeting their requirements by direct purchases from the Coorg Region of Karnataka state where from the material is moved out at Rs125 -127 a Kg to anywhere in India. Similarly, the dealers in Tamil Nadu state was buying from Kerala's Idukki region.
Sharp fall in output in 2008 crop and great domestic demand outweighing the indigenous output would pave the way for increased imports in the coming months as the prices in other origins continued to remain far below than that of the Indian parity. Growers fear that black pepper imported under advance licence for value addition and re-export might enter the domestic market to depress the internal
Meanwhile, Indian futures market during the week witnessed high volatility mainly due to manipulations by the operators who have been pushing up and pulling down the prices under the guise of speculation. Consequently, in fact, the market is shrouded by uncertainty. “In fact, the prices were oscillating up and down without any rime or reason and also without any o-relation to the fundamentals, trading sources told Brazilian Pepper Trade Board. “It is not at all a healthy sign. Real hedgers, be it exporter or domestic dealer, will move out from the market. Similarly, small and medium players are also compelled to go out. Investors are also not coming forward as there is no spot pepper”, they said. “If gambling and manipulation just to make money by a section under the guise of speculation is allowed then futures trading will have no meaning and it will work against the purpose for which it has been introduced”, they pointed out.
All the contracts on the main exchange dropped during the week.
The fall was from Rs264 to Rs342 a quintal at the week end close. June delivery closeted at 12,320 on Saturday.Spot prices also fell by Rs200 a quintal during the week to close at
Rs12,100 (un-garbled) and Rs12,600 (MG 1) a quintal.

The Crisis & The Pepper
This has been a tough year for the Pepper market operators.
After early rise in prices, peaking in February, market started its descence in a setady and solid path which culminated in October whith the world crisis and the Dolar volatility.
Commodities suffered too and the crisis is said to be the worst since the 29 bankruptcy.
However some points deserve a more detailed consideration.
This crisis is essentialy a monetary crisis - lack of moneys. But what moneys ? The fake ones - virtual moneys that did not exist - actualy never existed. Just promises of payment.
There´s a need to separate the physical from the virtual. Sure, jobs and salaries will be lost and the consumption will be reduced to a degree. The consumption of luxury articles will suffer as well as housing, cars, and other big value items. But we do not see the food industry or pharmaceutical, or any other for primary needs to suffer in the same extent as the rest. People will still eat - even because it´s the cheapest expense. To put all the produce in the same basket is an error or can one imagine the guns industry reducing prices due to lack of demand?
There´s life beyond futures trading...
The problem is that such catarse open doors to speculators to manipulate the markets.
