Credit tightening measures and interest rate increases in most countries in the world are slowing down the consumption of goods, especially imported goods. The International Pepper Community continues to list lower export pepper prices of countries. This organization assessed that the total global pepper supply in 2022 is estimated at 535 thousand tons, down nearly 3% compared to 2021 and the decrease mainly comes from Vietnam and India. Meanwhile, global consumption demand is lower than every year, especially the decline in purchasing power from the Chinese market, has pushed world pepper prices down. The President of the Indian Pepper and Spice Trade Association (IPSTA) said that Indian pepper prices are rising due to increased festival demand in highland markets and before the Diwali season, especially from spice manufacturers. Currently, more and more companies are starting to produce spices, so demand is expected to increase. Domestic consumption in India is higher than the average monthly requirement of 5,500 tons. Domestic pepper prices continue to fall sharply in the context of the State Bank of Vietnam’s decision to adjust the USD/VND spot exchange rate band from ±3% to ±5%; effective from October 17. Immediately after this adjustment, banks simultaneously increased the USD exchange rate. The high USD continues to cause difficulties for exports and affect global commodity consumption. In particular, spice commodities such as pepper are heavily affected. #pepper #pepper #news #agriculture #nhanong #mientay #taynguyen #pepper #pepper price today #pepper price #pepper today #udaklak pepper price #ubinhphuoc pepper price #dongnai pepper price #freshest pepper price today #freshest pepper price #vungtau pepper price #gialai pepper price #udaknong pepper price
