Decline in Summer Prices

Exporters in Dalian report that high temperatures are negatively impacting pumpkin seed kernel sales. Prices have steadily declined throughout the summer as demand in key markets has decreased.

Reduced Demand in Key Markets

Demand for pumpkin seed kernels in the Middle East, Europe, and Southeast Asia has reduced significantly. Domestic food factories have also decreased their purchasing volumes, contributing to the difficulty in maintaining price levels.

Increased Inventory Sales

Producers have responded to the decreased market demand by increasing their inventory sales this month. This influx of supply, combined with reduced demand, has led to price fluctuations in the market.

The current trend in pumpkin seed kernel prices underscores the challenges posed by seasonal weather patterns and shifting demand in global markets. Stakeholders should monitor these trends closely and adjust their strategies to navigate the evolving market conditions effectively.
