AfricaPress-Tanzania:<\/strong> MTWARA cashew nuts have fetched a good price at the on-going commodity market since the start of the season, thanks to high kernel quality.<\/p>\n

The Mtwara cashew nuts, according to experts, have high kernel quality compared to those from Lindi, thus fetching good prices.<\/p>\n

According to Tanzania Mercantile Exchange (TMX), Tandahimba raw nuts fetched 2,698\/- per kilogramme, the highest since the season started early this month compared to between 2,642\/- and 2,496\/- of Lindi.<\/p>\n

Since the beginning of the season in this month, TMX conducted five raw cashew nut auctions in Mtwara and Lindi at price the range of 2,405\/- and 2,698\/-.<\/p>\n

Tanzania Pulses Network National Coordinator Zirack Andrew said the first TMX auctions in a number of warehouses in Mtwara and Lindi showed that the price was averaging at around 2,560\/- per kilogramme.<\/p>\n

\u201cOf the two regions, Mtwara cashew nuts faired well compared to Lindi\u2019s. This is slightly higher than the average price of cashew nuts as of last December by 4 per cent,\u201d Mr Andrew said.<\/p>\n

In the past five years, India has been leading in exports by taking an average of 66 per cent of Tanzania\u2019s export share.<\/p>\n

Last year though for the first time in many years, India was outclassed by Vietnam by being the major importer of the permanent crop by fetching cashew nuts to $197 million which was 89 per cent of Tanzania\u2019s exports.<\/p>\n

The global trade flow of raw cashew nuts is currently about 2.1 billion valued at $2.7bn.<\/p>\n

The consumption\u2014 importation\u2014pack is led by Vietnam, India, Saudi Arabia, China and Indonesia.<\/p>\n

According to Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), Tanzania ranks eighth in the world and fourth in Africa \u2013 behind Nigeria, Cote D\u2019Ivore and Guinea \u2013 Bissau<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
