BEIJING. Rain has impacted the new kidney bean crop in China. Sales are sluggish for mung beans and the new crop has impacted the quotations for adzuki beans.

Adzuki beans

With the new crop arriving the prices for adzuki beans from last year’s crop started to slip in China in mid-September. Contrary to this, the prices for the new crop are on the rise.

Black kidney beans

Traders started to turn active in mid-September and the new crop has started to arrive in October. Rain has, however, affected the harvest and close attention is being paid to further developments. Most traders in the production areas do not have any stocks left and are eager to replenish supplies with the new crop.
