The export figure of onions in week 22 makes it clear that there is a gliding flight. Everything points to calmly mooring for the new season. There is no hectic.
With a provisional export figure of 12.148 tons, 6% fewer onions were exported compared to last week. This means that onion sales have entered a slide, which indicates an end-of-season mode. Due to subsequent information, last week's export figures have been increased by 205 tons. Both mentioned changes result in a total seasonal export result of 1.150.960 tons. This results in a weekly average of 23.488 tons.
Sales are broadly comparable to last week, with the difference that Poland has managed to squeeze itself in among African buyers. But the leader in week 22 was Great Britain with 2.699 tonnes, followed by Ivory Coast with 1.297 tonnes, Guinea with 1.169 tonnes, Poland with 480 tonnes and Mauritania with 476 tonnes. British purchases have now passed the 100.000 ton mark.
