Agro Commodity Update (22nd-Nov-2017)
Fundamental Aspect:
Soybean futures traded higher in last couple of days on anticipation of rise in demand from crushers. Improving landed cost of soy oil may spark fresh buying at physical market which may help soybean futures to remain stronger in near term. However, adequate supply of Soybean may restrict the major gains as prices has slumped below to minimum support prices at major trading centres due to surging arrivals pressure. SOPA released its first advance estimates for soybean production for year 2017- 18 and pegged at 91.46 lakh tonnes as compared with 109.92 lakh tonnes noted last year. India exported around 537145 MT soy meal during the April, 17 – Oct, 17 compare to 107110 Mt noted last year for corresponding period as per the data compiled by Solvent extractor’s Association of India. (SEA).
Turmeric futures traded marginally higher due to short covering activity by the market participants in expectation of up country demand. There are reports good supplies from the government auctions but due to end of season the stocks are diminishing with the physical traders. The export of turmeric is down by 17.4% to 49,186 tonnes for the first 5 month of FY 2017-18 as compared to the last years’ exports. The arrivals increase for first 15 days in November to 4,577 tonnes compared to 3,457 tonnes in 2nd half of October.
Mentha Oil futures prices are expected to trade within a range with upside biasness in near trading session. As per the trader source, traders have raised their holdings on the back of pick-up in spot demand from consuming industries. Tight stock positions due to restricted arrivals from the major producing belts of Chandausi is also giving support to the mentha prices. With the onset of winter the seasonal and export demand of mentha is improving which is also one of the reasons for rise in prices.
