Brazil nuts, dried apricot & sultanas
37
The Brazil nut MBP rose marginally by 1% m-o-m in August, to USD 3.61/lb, but was down by 43% y-o-y. Prices
have been stabilising at normal levels after last year's price surge caused by limited supplies in Bolivia, the largest
Brazil nut producer, and COVID-19-related shipping disruptions on routes between South America and Europe.
The remaining Brazil nut inventories in Bolivia are reportedly tight.
Dried apricot prices fell further in August, with the dried apricot MBP (FOB Turkey) down by 7% m-o-m, to USD
6,680/MT, but up by 59% y-o-y. The market sentiment is being affected by a slowdown in demand, due to the
previously over-inflated prices.
The Turkish sultana MBP (CIF Northwest Europe) rose 4% m-o-m in August, to USD 1,578/MT, but was down by
9% y-o-y. The transition into the new 2022/23 crop continued to support the bullish market sentiment. The rise in
domestic TMO prices and rains during the harvest provided further upside impetus.
