Market Update 2/22/21

February 23, 2021

Almonds:
Shipments this crop year have been excellent. That being said,
there are still quite a few pounds left to sell. Freezing temperatures and shipping delays are the most recent disruptions in the market. Pricing has firmed since the last report, as many handlers do not choose to participate at these lower levels.

NPS 27/30 $1.90
California/Carmel $1.78-$2.00
Manufactured $2.50+

Pecans:
China is currently not buying much. Mexico is reporting lower quality and reduced tonnage from the initial reports. One report shows Mexican at 360,000 in-shell pounds and US at about 300 million, along with a 181,000 pound carry over from last year. Consumption last year was 536,000 pounds, so we are in an over-supply situation. Prices look stable to weak. The market has not changed much in the last couple of weeks.

FJMH $4.80-$5.00
Fancy Pieces $2.85-$3.05
Western/Eastern Schley $2.60-$.80 per point
Mexican in-shell $2.80 per point

Walnuts:
Shipments in January were 63 thousand tons - second highest for January. Final crop receipts are at 784 thousand tons. Chandler supply has tightened up and prices have increased.

LHP $2.35
CHP $1.95-$2.05
Jumbo Chandler $1.10
Chandler LHP 20 $2.50

Cashews:
The recent Tet holiday has resulted in fewer sales. Prices are
lower but stable. Demand for the larger sizes is quite low.
Consumption has been reduced as a result of Covid. Containers are in short supply due to Covid vaccine shipments. The Vietnamese
crop has begun harvest and the prediction is that the total yield
will be good.

W240: US $3.35/lb
W320: US $2.90/lb
W450: US $2.50/lb
DW: US $2.10/lb
LP: US $1.10/lb
SP: US $0.60/lb

Pistachios:
Shipments last month totaled 61 million pounds - down from last year's same period. Exports are down while Domestic is up. YTD shipments are up. There are sellers out there and buyers are looking to cover. Market seems firm to slightly bullish.

18-20 raw $3.90
Shelled $7.70
H&amp;P $6.85
