With India’s 2017-18 sugar production touching 32 mn tonnes against only

20.3 mn tonnes last year, India’s sugar Industry has been saddled with

almost 7 mn tonnes of surplus and is in a deep glut. Amid forecast of good

rains, the surplus stocks are expected to pileup further next year.

As per the sowing data released by the Agriculture Ministry, as on 1 June

2018, sugarcane has been planted in around 49.32 lakh hectares (lh) across

the country, higher than 48.72 lh in the corresponding week last year and

normal of 45.02 lh till date.

Under such scenario, India has last week made a strong pitch to export 1.5

mn tons of sugar to China under the 50% tariff category to reduce surplus.

China imports 4-5 mn tonnes sugar annually but India’s sugar export to

China has been thus far very small. The deal is expected to be finalised by

August & exports to China might begin after September this year.

Despite measures like allowing export of 2 mn tonnes under MIEQ scheme

& scrapping off the 20% export duty, India’s sugar exports have not picked

up due to excess supply in global market.

The Minister of agriculture has also hinted at the possibility of Government

paying an assistance of Rs. 7.70 to mills for every kg of sugar they export

as the international prices are hovering low.

To support the crashed prices, the cabinet may soon fix a minimum price

for the sale of sugar by the mill owners to traders. The minimum price

could hover around Rs 30-32 per kg. There is also a proposal to impose a

cess on sugar sales being decided by GST panel.

The government is also considering building a buffer stock of 3 mn tons to

to taper excess & help mills pay cane arrears to farmers.

The cane arrears have mounted to 22,000-crore. The government in May

month approved a subsidy of Rs 55 per tonne for cane farmers to help clear

these arrears.

In order to manage the glut and avoid cheaper imports, in March, the

government doubled the import duty to 100% & imposed stock holding

limits in February to restrict fall in prices.

However refiners say these measures don’t go far enough & the

government should stop raising the cane price to avoid sugar gluts.

The seasonal summer demand and speculations about the government

measures like buffer stock offered slight support to sugar prices last week.

Record output in India and Thailand is driving the global market to the

biggest ever glut with a global surplus of 11.1 million tons in 2017-18.

A global glut has pushed sugar prices close to a three-year low, amounting

to significant setbacks for countries like Brazil and Thailand that depend on

export revenues.

Fundamental Report SUGAR

India is the second producer of

sugar in the world after Brazil,

and largest consumer of Sugar.

If India subsidises its sugar

exports and “dumps” the surplus

sugar in global market, which is

already in glut, it will hurt other

exporter countries who may

complain to WTO.

Fundamental Report TUR

Tur import up to 2 lakh tonnes has been allowed for the year 2018-19. Parity

is in favour of importers despite 10% import duty on Tur, thus they will

import tur under the renewed quota.

Burma Tur is being offered at $465 per tonne basis Indian port, which after

an import duty of 10% comes to Rs 3427/qtl. This is lower than the

prevailing domestic price of Rs 3900-4200/ qtl.

Apart from this, another 1.5 lakh tonnes of tur was allowed to be imported

from Mozambique, with India bound by the MoU signed in 2016.

The third advance estimates released by the government have pegged

India’s tur production at 4.18 mn tonnes against 4.87 million tonnes last

year. India already has a huge pile up of surplus tur stocks from this year

and last.

Farmers are holding a stock of nearly 6 million quintal with them, as prices

have fallen far below the MSP. Another 10 million quintal tur is estimated

to be with various government agencies.

Farmers of Maharashtra are in protest and one of the reasons is tur being

imported from Mozambique despite Maharashtra having abundant stocks.

Tur sowing has begun at a very slow pace and as per the preliminary

sowing report, till 1 June area sown under Tur is lags behind at 0.08 lakh ha

against 0.10 lakh tonnes till same date last year.

Tur acreage is expected to fall by around 20% due to low realisations for

farmers. The prices of tur have been ruling between Rs 3900-4200/ qtl

against MSP of Rs 5,400/qtl due to surplus stocks.

The MSP of Tur for Kharif 2018 may be raised to Rs 5850/qt (the

notification is awaited).

The Centre had granted extension to the Maharashtra government for

procurement of tur (arhar) under at MSP, however several million tonnes

of tur is already lying at purchase centres and there is no storage space.

The Maharashtra government has increased the profit margin of PDS shop

owners on tur dal in a bid to increase its sale. Maharashtra government has

decided to sell Tur dal at Rs 35 per kg through ration shop. It was selling

Rs55 per kg earlier.

Nafed has procured around 8.57 lakh tonne Tur. Karnataka & Maharashtra

contributed around 3.35 & 3.24 lakh tonne.

The tur arrivals are at fag end and along with some wedding season

demand, diminishing arrivals may lend some support to prices. News of

lower acreage may also lend support to the tur prices

However, the imports, stocks with the government, expected rise in MSP

to encourage acreage and normal monsoon may limit the upside.

Fundamental Report WHEAT

Indian government raised the import duty on wheat from twenty

percent to thirty percent to protect domestic growers from sourcing

cheaper produce from overseas markets. A weakening rupee against

the dollar, coupled with the increase in import duty will put an end to

the cheap inflow of wheat in the coming days.

Roller flour mills in South India are worried over the hike in the wheat

import duty as it makes them uncompetitive in the domestic market

compared with their counterparts in wheat growing areas in the

North India. Bulk of the imports are generally made by mills of the

South India from countries such as Australia and the Black Sea region,

mainly Ukraine.

Wheat procurement has crossed the government's target by 6.84 per

cent to 34.19 million tonnes (MT) so far in this marketing year as

purchases in Uttar Pradesh have picked following special efforts by

the state authorities. Moreover, market participants are expecting

more wheat to be procured from Uttar Pradesh in the coming days.

According the latest report of Food Corporation of India (FCI), as on

01st June 2018, wheat procurement has reached 341.90 lakh metric

tonnes. Of the total quantity procured, around 126.91 lakh tonnes

have been procured from Punjab, 87.39 lakh tonnes from Haryana,

38.41 lakh tonnes from Uttar Pradesh, 72.81 lakh tonnes have been

procured from Madhya Pradesh, 14.90 in Rajasthan, 0.97 lakh tonnes

from Uttarakhand, 0.14 lakh tonnes from Chandigarh and 0.37 lakh

tonnes from Gujarat.

According to the third advance estimate released by government,

wheat production estimate for 2017-18 is 98.61 million MT which is 1.54

per cent higher than second advance estimate of 97.11 million MT.

Despite some crop damage reports in many parts of the country due

to storm in harvesting period, production estimate is higher due to

higher yield expectation. However, trade sources are estimating the

crop in the range of 91-94 million MT for 2017-18.

According to latest monthly report of IGC, world wheat production is

projected at 742 million MT for 2018-19 against 758 million tonnes

forecast for 2017-18, while the ending stocks are projected lower at

258 million tonnes against 262 million tonnes last year.

Fundamental Report CHANA

Indian government has increased the procurement limit for chana to

15.77 lakh tonnes for ongoing procurement season. Procurement

activities by the government agencies are keeping the prices stable in

the domestic market and support to the farmers.

According to the latest Nafed report, as on 21st May Nafed had

procured 14.59 Lakh MT of chana. Of the total quantity procured,

around 0.50 lakh tonnes have been procured from Telangana, 1.27 lakh

tonnes from Karnataka, 0.77 lakh tonnes from Andhra Pradesh, 0.88

lakh tonnes have been procured from Maharashtra, 2.67 lakh tonnes in

Rajasthan,9.09 lakh tonnes from Madhya Pradesh, 0.27 lakh tonnes in

Gujarat and 0.008 lakh tonnes from Uttar Pradesh.

Higher arrivals of chana in the domestic market are keeping the prices

downward. According to agmark, all India chana arrivals in the last

week of May is 2.42 lakh MT which is 340 per cent higher than the last

year arrival of 0.55 lakh MT in the same time period.

Despite putting higher import duty on chana, India imported 9.72 lakh

tonnes of chana during April 17 to February 18 which is 4.6 per cent

higher than last year in the same time period. In December 2017, the

government withdrew customs duty exemption on chana and

imposed a 30 per cent duty. This increase was not sufficient to plug

imports and hence the government again hiked import duty to 40 per

cent in February and then to 60 per cent in March 2018.

As of 04th June, imported Australian chana is being traded at Rs 3400

per quintal in Mumbai market and Rs 3450 per quintal at Mundra port.

According to the third advance estimates released by the government,

India’s chana production estimate for 2017-18 is 11.16 million MT which

is 18.97 per cent higher than 2016-17 fourth advance production

estimates of 9.38 million MT. Higher production estimate is due to

higher chana sowing acreage and favourable weather condition in

major producing states.

Chickpeas production in Australia is expected to decrease by 35.92 per

cent to 11.88 lakh tonne in 2017-18 from 18.54 lakh tonne in 2016-17.

Despite higher area coverage of chickpea, production is bound to

decrease due to hot and dry weather condition in the major growing

regions. Chickpeas area increased from 1052 in 2016-17 to 1099

thousand ha in 2017-18.

Fundamental Report RICE/PADDY

As per the Ministry of Agriculture the All India Rice acreage as on 01st

June showed a decline of 43 per cent at 2.95 lakh hectares as

compared to 5.20 lakh hectares last year same period. Major acreage

was reported from Uttarakhand 1.04 lakh hectares, Assam 0.65 lakh

hectares, Tamil Nadu 0.39 lakh hectares, Mizoram 0.35 lakh hectares,

and Maharashtra 0.26 lakh hectares.

All-India progressive procurement of Rice as on 28 May 2018 stood at 350.32 lakh tonnes against the procurement of 360 lakh tonnes in the corresponding period of last year.

Higher Rice procurement has been received from northern states of Punjab (118.33 lakh tonnes), Haryana (39.67 lakh tonnes), and U.P (28.75 lakh tonnes) and in south it is picking up in Telangana (33.55 Lakh tonnes).

According to the latest 3rd Advance Crop Production Estimates for

2017-18, Rice production is estimated at a record level at 111.52 million

tonnes as against 109.70 million tonnes last year.

Thailand upwardly revised its 2018 Rice export target to 10 million

tonnes, from the previous forecast of 9.5 million tonnes after exports

of the grain for the first four months of this year performed better

than expected, according to the Thai Rice Exporters Association.

From January through April, Thailand exported 3.31 million tonnes of

rice, up 38 per cent from a year earlier and outpacing other big rice

exporters like India which shipped 3.21 million tonnes; Vietnam, 1.61

million tonnes and Pakistan, 1.28 million tonnes.

As per market sources, Indian non-Basmati rice may soon make its way

to China with Beijing clearing the grain of any risk of introduction of

alien pests.

According to market sources, at present there is a lot of confusion in

the market on what will happen after US sanctions on Iran. Central

government is in talks with Iranian government to avoid US sanctions

and do business smoothly. Iran is a big market for basmati rice.

According to exporters, African buyers are turning to India due to the recent price fall. In the last few weeks inquiries have risen from buyers. Prices for India’s 5 per cent broken parboiled variety rose by $5 to $399-$403 per tonne. India’s rice exports in April rose 12 per cent from a year earlier to 989,848 tonnes on good demand for non-basmati rice from African countries.

In Thailand, prices of the 5 per cent broken variety stood at $430-446

per tonne, free on board (FOB) Bangkok, versus $435-438 last week.

Prices of Vietnam’s 5 per cent broken rice eased slightly to $455-$460 a

tonne from $460-$465 previously.

Guar seed and Guar gum prices have remained weak at key markets

across the country due to poor buying interest from traders and

crushers. Crushers have opted to stay on the side-line or did need-

based buying due to consistent fall in prices of Guar seed and Guar

gum against lower than expected export demand.

Demand in Guar seed is expected to remain sluggish due to fag end

season and good monsoon prospects which may pressure prices

ahead.

According to traders, the reason behind weakness in the commodity

is normal monsoon forecast and subdued export demand.

Good monsoon has raised prospects of Guar seed sowing and

production. Guar seed stock in the country is already ample and

next crop is expected well in case monsoon makes good progress in

producing states of Rajasthan, Gujarat, Punjab and Haryana.

As per market sources, Rajasthan is expected to produce 17.50 lakh tonnes guar seed during the Kharif crop season 2018-19, up 40 per cent from 12.45 lakh tonnes a year ago due to forecast of normal monsoon.

As per IMD 2018 Monsoon forecast, monsoon rains are expected to

be normal this year and are expected to be 97 per cent of the long-

period average (LPA) with model error of +/- of 5 per cent.

As per the 2nd advance production estimates, Guar seed in Rajasthan

is estimated at 15.44 lakh tonnes for 2017-18 compared to 14.04 lakh

tonnes in 2016-17.

According to trades, Guar seed stock in the country is expected to

be over 1 crore bags (100kg each) or 10 lakh tonnes, which is

massive under current circumstances.

As per latest update by DGCIS, India has exported around 494126

metric tonnes of guar gum in April-March (2017-18) compared to

419952 metric tonnes in April-March (2016-17).

As per trade sources, export of guar gum has declined in the month

of April. Exports in the month of April are down by around 7.4 per

cent compared to previous month. India exported around 27283

tonnes of guar gum in the month of April at an average FOB of $

1884.03 per tonne.
