Mixed Week In Lentils
PANAMA - Jul 19/19 - SNS -- International lentil markets closed the week on a mixed note, with Canadian exporters mostly withdrawn in new crop shipping positions while their counterparts in the United States and Russia remain active.

Between July 1 and July 18, the proportion of Saskatchewan's lentil crop rated in poor or very poor condition slipped from 10% to 7%, while the percentage rated fair dropped from 42% to 35%, and the proportion rated good to excellent jumped from 48% to 58%.
