MUMBAI (Commoditiescontrol) - Chick peas (Chana) production in Canada during 2018-19 is estimated to more than double in size to 283,000 metric tonnes (MT) due to higher area combined with better yields, said Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) in October release.
Exports are forecast to remain unchanged due to the increased world supply, with the EU, the US and Pakistan expected to remain the main markets for Canadian chickpeas. Carry-out stocks are expected to increase and be burdensome for prices. The average price is forecast to fall due to expectation for increased world supply.
US chickpea area seeded is estimated by the USDA at a record 0.8 million acres, up 32% from 2017-18. Assuming below normal yields and abandonment, 2018-19 US chickpea production is forecast by AAFC at a record 0.4 Mt, sharply higher than 2017-18.
