Indian Cashew Kernel Market

In India, local markets showed some activity with rise in prices of cashew kernels during the week. There

was low availability of kernel noticed in cashew markets. In Vetepalem there was good demand for kernels

due to marriage season.

RCN Market in India

During the wee, the RCN market was active; the prices have gone up slightly, but Inventory drawdown is

evident in raw cashew

Indian CNSL Market

The Indian CNSL market is in typical situation as there were no buyers for CNSL and low availability noticed.

Less interest shown to extracting CNSL, therefore shells remained idle.

Netherlands Cashew Market

Information on the crops on the northern hemisphere so far is all good. The prices of raw seeds are coming

down a bit and offers are floating around. The general opinion is that when the market continues to develop

as it is at the moment, kernel prices might come down. When something occurs though, it easily can change

the feeling as especially the pre-sales might become questionable than.
