Record Low Bulk Pea Movement

WINNIPEG - Dec 29/17 - SNS -- The Canadian Grain Commission (CGC) reports 36,800 metric tons (MT) field pea were loaded for export through licensed terminal and primary elevators which are required to report to it all grain movement in November.

The CGC data does not include exports in containers or from non-reporting terminals. It is important to recall that the CGC data may not match official export data. The CGC counts product when it is loaded to ships, while Statistics Canada bases its calculations on the bill of lading date.

The CGC reports exports are down 84% from the 236,200 MT shipped the same month last year and down 79% from the 176,600 MT loaded for export the previous month.


Worst November Since 2000
