Canadian Field Pea Exports SurgeVANCOUVER - Jan 5/08 - SNS -- Canadian field pea exports slowed in December, though shipments for the first five months of the 2007-08 marketing year are running 11% ahead of last season, according to data reported by members of the Canadian Ports Clearance Association. Clearances at terminals reporting to the association totalled 875,745 metric tons (MT) between August and December. This compares to 785,151 MT last year and is 8.2% below the record 954,327 MT shipped during the first five months of the 2005-06 marketing campaign.
