Pepper prices ruled steady as demand matched supply. Direct buying from the doorsteps of growers/primary market dealers in Idukki district on cash-and-carry basis has thinned the arrivals at the terminal market today.
Only 15 tonnes of pepper arrived and that were traded at ₹600-610 a kg. Meanwhile, re-processors were running around to cover. Contrary to expectations the market has become firmer pushing the prices up. On the terminal market, spot prices remained steady at ₹62,000 (ungarbled) and ₹65,000 (garbled) a quintal. Export prices were at $10,800 a tonne c&f prompt shipments.
