Gold Silver Reports — As per official data, Russia exported 428 KMT of peas in the seven months of MY 2016/17, or 5% less than at the same time last season (450n++KMT in July-January 2015/16).
Traditionally, the key importer of Russian peas in this period was Turkey, but its export share shrank (to 48% against 58% in MY 2015/16) because of expanding deliveries to other markets. In particular, the period under review saw higher shipments to India, the EU and Pakistan. In addition, Russian exporters restored pea deliveries to Egypt.
Russias 2016 pea crop of some 2.2 MMT was the largest since 1994. — Neal Bhai Reports
