Discussion Market Structure
Indian yield seems to be flat lining and production in decline. Why? Has investment dropped in pulse breeding and extension?
Consumption patterns in key export markets. What’s changing? What influences green and red lentil prices in India and other key markets. Varietal or genetic direction that suppliers/origins should be focused upon? Changes to Indian export ban….import whole, export processed? Market disruption
or not? The role of futures markets
Any value for lentils? If so, where should it be based?
