PANAMA - Oct 23/16 - SNS -- International field pea markets maintained their relatively firm tone against strong export movement from the world's major suppliers.

Export clearances for August were up roughly 20,000 metric tons (MT) over last year at almost 78,000 for yellow and green peas combined, while whole and split pea exports from Canada were up 17,000 MT at almost 273,000.
