Consistent Supply and Demand Patterns

This week, the buckwheat market in Dalian has shown little change in its supply and demand patterns. Overall, the price of buckwheat remains stable, with minor fluctuations.

Domestic and International Price Differentials

The price differential between domestic and international markets has expanded this year. As a result, domestic processing plants are using both domestic and imported buckwheat to produce buckwheat rice, flour, and husk. Shipment prices for these products are being set based on quality.

Inventory and Cost Considerations

Domestic farmers are selling their remaining buckwheat at low prices. However, traders' inventory costs continue to support current price levels. The export market, on the other hand, is heavily influenced by shipping costs, which affect the final pricing of buckwheat products.

The stability in the buckwheat market, despite price differentials and varying supply sources, highlights the resilience and adaptability of the agricultural sector. As traders and processors navigate these dynamics, maintaining a balance between quality and cost will be crucial for sustaining market stability.
