Surge in FOB ginger prices
“Increasing production costs, caused by rising costs for growing, land leasing, labor and management fees, have led to a peak in purchasing prices for raw ginger. Prices are now more than 100% higher than in 2015. The use and application of pesticides has improved, and controls on MRL have sharpened. In addition, farmers are becoming increasingly cautious about the use of pesticides and fertilizers, knowing that their produce will not be suitable for export if they are not.”
Cold winter might force export prices up
“According to weather forecasts and warnings regarding La Nina, we expect the 2017 Winter to be colder than usual. If this is the case, the costs of storing ginger in temperature controlled storage facilities will rise. This will have an effect on export prices. However, if the temperature remains stable, then we do not expect export prices to fluctuate much.”
