More calm is expected on the carrot market in the coming weeks. The most important African destination: Senegal, will close in the short term and there is and remains little demand for carrots from Europe. Can the DCA quotation Peen still move sideways?
When it comes to the carrot trade, little change is visible compared to last week. It is quiet and Senegal, the most important African market, will be closed on Tuesday, December 15. Friday, November 27 is the last day that deliveries can be made to that destination. Traders are somewhat gloomy about the period that will follow. Even more peace is expected, given that there is very little demand from Europe.
Quote moves sideways
The unchanged mood on the market is causing the DCA listing Peen to move sideways this week. The average price for B-carrot therefore remains at €12 per 100 kilos, with a price range of €10 to €14 per 100 kilos. The price for C-carrot remains stable this week at €13 per 100 kilos, with a price range of €12 to €14 per 100 kilos.
