India Re-emerges As France's Top Buyer
VANCOUVER - Aug 16/12 - SNS -- France's 2011-12 marketing campaign finished with India emerging as the most important destination for peas as it was able to take advantage of fundamental shortages of product in Canada and the United States.
Data compiled by the Union Nationale Interprofessionnelle des Plantes Riches en Proteines (UNIP) reveals exports during June totalled 29,175 metric tons (MT), down from the 66,280 MT shipped in May, and down slightly from the 29,815 MT of field peas exported the same month the previous year.
This lifts field pea exports during the 2011-12 marketing year to 348,690 MT, versus 354,025 MT during the previous season.
