South Africa: harvesting disappointing for dryland yields, bullish ↑BREAKING NEWS  

May 4, 2018
In contradiction with the latest official crop estimates of 88'000 metric tons production , local peanut experts foresee much less total output and talking about numbers below 60'000 metric tons... Yields on the dryland fields seem to be far below the expected 1'300 kg but more likely between 500 kg and 1'000 kg. Yields on irrigation are normal but not excessive... We would not be surprised to see total crop slightly above the 50'000 metric tons We do not expect the origin offering new crop until the month of June 2018... To be continued

ARGENTINA: Some rain at last, mixed & bullish ↑BREAKING NEWS  

April 3, 2018
Last weekend, finally the Cordoba peanut belt got some rains. Northern part only 5 to 8mm. The center part got the most from 25mm to 40mm. No rain in the South of the peanut belt. More rain forecasted for coming Friday to Sunday. There is no need to say that these late rain will only favor yields of the late planted areas, 10 to 15 per cent of the crop. Rains are positive for the digging, harvesting of some fields and might be negative for the fields already dug and for the fields that had heavy drought stress. At this moment we know very little of the average quality outcome, to be continued…

SOUTH AFRICA: latest crop estimates jumped more than 20 per cent: mixedBREAKING NEWS ↔ 

March 9, 2018
Coming back on our previous crop estimates, it seems that the plenty of rainfall during the last 60 days has favored yields and hectares plantations (to be verified). This week the National Crop Estimate committee announced a total peanut crop of 89,000 MT, witch a too optimistic figure that indicates an average yield of 1.58 MT/HA. Local expert opinion is more that the average yield will be between 1.1 – 1.3 MT/Ha, which will bring the South African Spanish crop to a total production of 61,000 – 73,000 metric tons of farmer stock kernel basis. We advise to be cautious as a substantial part of the crop has been planted very late and thus exposed to potential issues during a late harvest, to be continued…

ARGENTINA: Last week end scattered showersBREAKING NEWS ↑  

February 27, 2018
After the few showers that happened last week end; 10mm in the north and 15-20mm around Rio Cuarto. Latest rain covered only 30% of the peanut fields. Bulk of the crop is still under light stress. Below report from our local experts: Several weeks have been passed without a decent rain in the peanut area.  All rain activities so far have been scattered showers, except for few exceptions, that provided limited or no rainfall. Weather forecast expect same pattern for another week , scattered showers with limited rainfall. By the 6/7th of March there is a possibility of decent rains but again not covering all areas. The crop in the Centre to South Peanut Belt has deteriorated. Peanuts that have been planted in October have no time now to get a decent recovery. Potential Yields At this stage is fair to expect that 2018 crop yields (average)will not be much above 2600 kgs. If we compare it with 3600 kgs of harvested area last year, you can see that production will fall, despite the planting increase of 5%. Production estimation at this stage: 2018 crop tonnage will be around 1.0 M(in shell basis) providing normal weather happens from early March till harvesting is completed. The next 2 weeks weather pattern will be crucial for the crop…
