Prices in western Liaoxi, including Chaoyang, Beipiao, and Jianping were largely unchanged. The prices in east China were lowered by 40-50 yuan/mt.Leading steel mills in Tangshan raised the bid price of concentrates last week. Recently, there was news of production resumptions at the local beneficiation plants. It is understood that a large private mine in Qianxi may resume normal production at the end of June. But concentrates prices will have support as local concentrates supply is still tight. On the demand side, although there were rumours of crude steel output reduction in the market, there were no expectations of production restrictions in the near future. Concentrates demand will be supported.The supply remains tight, and beneficiation plants raised prices. On the demand side, profits at steel mills have not improved significantly, and they continued to push for lower prices.

The meeting of the 13-member Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) headed by Saudi Arabia and its 10 partners, led by Russia, saw some tough negotiations. Saudi Arabia's fresh cut of one million barrels per day (bpd) is for July but 'extendable', its Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman told reporters after the hours-long OPEC+ meeting at the group's headquarters in Vienna. Analysts had largely expected OPEC+ producers to maintain their current policy, but signs emerged this weekend that the 23 countries were mulling deeper cuts. Advt In April, several OPEC+ members agreed to cut production voluntarily by more than one million bpd -- a surprise move that briefly buttressed prices but failed to bring about lasting recovery. - 'Everyone is happy' - Oil producers are grappling with falling prices and high market volatility amid the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which has upended economies worldwide. Oil prices have plummeted about 10 percent since the April cuts were announced, with Brent crude falling close to $70 a barrel, a level it has not traded below since December 2021. Traders worry that demand will slump, with concerns about the health of the global economy as the United States battles inflation and higher interest rates while China's post-Covid rebound stutters. Russia's Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said the current output cuts were being extended until the end of 2024 after examining the matter 'for a long time'. According to an OPEC+ table of the required production levels for next year, the United Arab Emirates will be able to pump more than currently, while several countries including Angola, the Republic of Congo and Nigeria have had their quotas cut. Bloomberg news agency reported African countries had been reluctant to give up some of their quotas despite failing to meet them. 'We have an agreement with which everyone is happy,' the Republic of Congo's hydrocarbons minister Bruno Jean-Richard Itoua insisted after the meeting. Advt - 'No disagreement' - Sunday's meeting was also being watched closely as Russia was keen to maintain its production, while Saudi Arabia wants to push prices up to balance its budget, according to analysts. 'They have showed again they work together... At the end of the day, it's about what they agree,' UBS analyst Giovanni Staunovo said, adding 'the important part was to show unity'. Russia is dependent on oil revenues with its war in Ukraine dragging on and Western sanctions hitting its economy, and has been shipping oil to India and China as the Asian giants soak up the cheap crude. On the other hand, Saudi Arabia's break-even price is currently 'at a good $80 per barrel', according to Commerzbank analysts. In March 2020 the alliance was pushed to the brink of collapse when Moscow refused to cut oil production even as the Covid pandemic sent prices into freefall. After negotiations broke down, Riyadh flooded the market by boosting exports to record levels before the two countries came to an agreement. Asked if there was disagreement with Saudi Arabia this weekend, Novak said: 'No, we had no disagreements, it is a common decision.' Analysts said oil prices were expected to rise in the short-term following Riyadh's move. 'The question mark is the demand side of the oil equation. If protracted inflationary pressure leads to a downward revision in global oil demand the cut in supply might be neutralised,' warned Tamas Varga, analyst for PVM Energy. OPEC+ countries produce about 60 percent of the world's oil. The next meeting of the group is scheduled for November 26.

India was the top buyer for Extra Long Staple (ELS) cotton of Egypt during 2021. There was a decrease in Egyptian exports to India, in contrast to a substantial increase in exports to China.  Egyptian cotton is characterised by its extra-long fibres, smaller in diameter than typical cotton. When these finer, longer fibres are combed and spun, they produce smooth yarn, which in turn yields smooth, soft cloth when woven.  Egyptian cotton exports to China in 2022 were valued at $116.934 million, accounting for 43.09 per cent of the total shipment. India, the second largest market, imported cotton worth $75.152 million, which made up 27.69 per cent of the total. Among the top five markets, Pakistan received 14.17 per cent of the shipment, Vietnam 5.37 per cent, and Bangladesh 3.77 per cent, according to Fibre2Fashion’s market insight tool TexPro.  In 2022, China became the top buyer of Egyptian cotton, surpassing India. Egypt's cotton exports to China amounted to $116.934 million, constituting 43.09 per cent of total exports. Chinese industry increased its cotton sourcing globally due to restrictions on exporting garments to the US made from cotton produced in China's Xinjian region. This pattern of buyer distribution greatly contrasts with that of 2021, when cotton exports from Egypt to India were valued at $143.985 million, making up 65.58 per cent of total exports. Meanwhile, shipments to Pakistan constituted 15.32 per cent, Bangladesh 10.17 per cent, and China just 2.34 per cent of the total.  Indian trade sources attribute this drastic shift in trade dynamics to significant delays in shipments by multinational cotton trading firms, which forced Indian buyers to stall their purchasing plans in 2022. This happened during a period when the natural fibre reached record high prices. Conversely, the Chinese industry had to source cotton globally, as they were unable to export garments to the US that were made from cotton produced in China's Xinjian region.  According to TexPro, the value of Egyptian cotton exports rose to $258.538 million in 2022 (133.158 million kg), up from $219.479 million (129.395 million kg) in 2021. Prior to this, the figures were $161.923 million (99.102 million kg) in 2020, $165.233 million (66.980 million kg) in 2019, and $219.479 million (124.054 million kg) in 2018.  Fibre2Fashion News Desk (KUL) ### Response: YES

Gold prices on June 5 slipped as the dollar firmed after strong US payrolls data last week, offsetting some of the support for zero-yield bullion from bets that the Federal Reserve may pause rate hikes in June. The precious metal, along with silver, hit a two-month low amid growing concerns about the strength of the global economy. Gold slipped below the $1,950 per ounce mark, indicating a decline of 7 percent from its May high of $2,070. The decline in gold prices can be attributed to several factors. Firstly, the latest non-farm payroll (NFP) data revealed that the U.S. economy added 339,000 new jobs in May, surpassing market expectations of 190,000. This positive employment data fuelled optimism about the strength of the US economy, leading investors to favour riskier assets over safe-haven commodities like gold. Furthermore, according to the CME FedWatch tool, there is a 73.6 percent probability of a rate hike pause in June. The potential for higher interest rates further dents the appeal of gold, as it increases the opportunity cost of holding the precious metal. Prices of the yellow metal dropped more than 1 percent on June 2, after data showed the US economy added 339,000 jobs last month, above estimates of 190,000.

It is the second consecutive annual increase and the second consecutive month that it remains the finished steel product with the highest consumption in the country, according to data from the Mexican Chamber of the Iron and Steel Industry (Canacero) reviewed by SteelOrbis. HRC production in Mexico registered its second annual drop so far this year; in April it decreased 1.9 percent. National production contributed 76.0 percent of total consumption, 12.2 percentage points less compared to the same month last year. Considering the increase in consumption in April, it was equivalent to 4.8 days of national production. HRC trade flow decreased 5.3 percent or 7,000 mt to 124,000 mt. This decrease is explained by the contraction of 72.7 percent in the export of HRC to 12,000 mt. In contrast, the import increased 28.7 percent or 25,000 mt to 112,000 mt. In the accumulated January-April, consumption increased 14.7 percent to 1.59 million mt, production grew 5.4 percent to 1.54 million mt, trade flow decreased 28.2 percent to 475,000 mt. Exports decreased 72.8 percent to 58,000 mt and imports decreased 7.1 percent to 417,000 mt.

However, the overall rebound in zinc prices was weak as expectations of oversupply existed due to high supply, more zinc imports and the off-season. However, we have not yet seen the accumulation of visible inventory. The inventory of smelters has increased as they were reluctant to sell at low prices.Regarding the expectations of domestic smelters to reduce production due to high sulphuric acid inventories, SMM survey shows that only some smelters will conduct overhaul in June. Only some smelters in Henan reduced production due to high sulphuric acid inventories.

I hope to succeed by 2024, if gas prices hold at the current (low) levels,' Pichetto Fratin said at an event organised by La Repubblica newspaper.Under its current plan for energy and climate (PNIEC), which is under review, the government targets an exit from coal in 2025.The minister said that natural gas, which is considered the least polluting fossil fuel, should accompany Italy's energy transition path until 2050, while the country gradually increases its renewable energy capacity.The environment ministry's updated strategy for energy and climate, to be unveiled in late June, will aim to increase power generation from renewables to two-thirds of the total by 2030 from the current one third, Pichetto Fratin said.The minister said it would be up to future governments to decide whether to reintroduce nuclear energy, which Italy abandoned via referendum in the late 1980s in the wake of the Chernobyl disaster in the former Soviet Union.'Analysts are saying that renewables sources will not be enough without nuclear energy,' Pichetto Fratin said, adding that the current administration had only allowed research and tests for this energy source.Our Standards: The Thomson Reuters Trust Principles. ### Response: NO

However, power generation companies (gencos) have only been able to blend 3 percent of their coal requirement, falling short of the mandated 6 percent. The blending of imported coal has helped save about 46-48 MT of domestic coal and has played a crucial role in meeting the country's peak demand, which reached a record high of 221.34 gigawatts (GW) on May 23. Additionally, it has contributed to meeting the high demand during non-solar hours, particularly at night. To avoid a recurrence of the coal crisis experienced last year, the government issued an order on January 9, 2023, requiring all gencos to use imported coal to the extent of 6 percent of their requirement. This mandate will remain in effect until September this year. Gencos failing to comply with the directive face restrictions on a pro-rata basis, as per the order. In the previous year, India's power sector imported 38.84 MT of coal between April and October 2023. This year, gencos have already imported at least 35 MT of coal within just five months. In the entire year of 2021-22, the power sector imported a total of 27 MT of coal. Currently, the coal stock situation at the country's power plants remains manageable, with at least 35 MT of coal stocked at thermal power plants. As of June 4, 30 out of the 165 domestic coal-based thermal power plants had critical stocks. This number is significantly lower than the corresponding period last year when there were 96 or more such plants with critical stocks.

Without the mandate, the stocks would have been at a precarious low. It is worth noting that the entire 35 MT of imported coal has been utilized by domestic coal-based power plants such as NTPC, DVC, and state-owned ones. Most of the imported coal, approximately 35 MT, comes from orders that were placed but put on hold due to the absence of any mandate. These orders were later revived by state and central gencos following the power ministry's January 9 order. Fresh orders for imported coal received from April 1 to June 4 amount to 4.91 MT, of which 2.5 MT has been consumed thus far, as per the available data. Data specifically related to imported coal-based (ICB) plants was not available as it is maintained separately. However, officials stated that the usage of imported coal by ICB plants is much lower compared to domestic coal-based (DCB) plants since there are only around 15 ICB plants in contrast to 165 DCB plants.

This comes after the Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies (OPEC+) member country Saudi Arabia announced on June 4 a cut in oil production of another one million barrels per day (bpd) starting in July. However, other OPEC+ countries, including Russia, have not announced further cuts. On the development, Deepak Jasani, Head of Retail Research, HDFC Securities, said, 'Prices will not rise majorly. There may be an upward momentum in immediate reaction, but prices are expected to remain weak in June amid low demand.' Crude oil prices traded around $75 per barrel in May due to demand weakness and recession worries. In April, OPEC+ announced a further supply cut of around 1.16 million bpd for 2023 to put pressure on oil prices. OPEC had agreed to cut production by two million bpd from November 2022 until the end of 2023, despite calls for pumping more oil by the US government. In April, Saudi Arabia decided to reduce supply by 500,000 bpd, while Iraq announced a cut of over 200,000 bpd starting from May 2023 until the end of the year. Russia said it will continue the production cut it announced earlier until the end of 2023. The country announced a production cut of 500,000 bpd in February. Related stories Oil prices tick down with OPEC meeting in rear view Opec+ extends oil production cuts, Saudi Arabia pledges big cuts in July Analysts said oil prices may rise immediately but would ultimately settle down amid demand worries, similar to when OPEC+ announced cuts in April. Probal Sen, Energy Analyst, ICICI Securities, said, 'Post the immediate reaction, my sense is that the signal this sends to global markets is that demand remains weak and no one else is willing to cut output. So, I think, the medium-term reaction will remain bearish.' Weak demand weighed on prices in May Crude oil prices, which touched an all-time high of $140 per barrel in March 2022, were trading around $75 per barrel in the month of May this year. Analysts said weak demand in China despite the reopening of the largest oil consumer in the world and recession worries in European countries dragged down prices in May. Prashant Vasisht, VP and Co-head of Corporate Ratings, ICRA, said, 'Muted driving season in America, weaker-than-expected demand from China, and several countries in Europe staring at recession were the major factors for weak prices in May.' 'In Europe, countries such as Germany are already in recession, and there is a high probability that the US may also enter recession by the end of this year. This has led to weakness in crude oil prices,' Vasisht added. Crude oil prices rose 2 percent to $77 per barrel on June 5. Read More ### Response: YES

Adverse weather conditions and the prospect of lower profits compared to paddy have hindered farmers' efforts. The primary districts involved in cotton production are Fazilka, Bathinda, Mansa, and Muktsar. As of May 31, when the sowing season concluded, approximately 175,000 hectares (58 percent of the target) had been sown with the cotton crop. This falls short of last year's achievement of 248,000 hectares against a 400,000-hectare target. A senior official from the Agriculture Department mentioned that initially, May 20 was set as the deadline for cotton sowing, but it was extended to May 31. They also stated that this year, around 175,000 hectares of cotton cultivation had been achieved, with Fazilka being the only district that showed better performance. Jangir Singh, Chief Agriculture Officer of Fazilka, stated that more than half of the land dedicated to cotton cultivation is in Fazilka district. They managed to sow the crop on 90,850 hectares, which is close to their target of 150,000 hectares. Singh attributed the success to the timely availability of canal water, which greatly supported the farmers. Related Links Cotton acreage likely to increase in North Area under cotton crop is likely to increase in the northern States of Punjab, Haryana and Rajasthan in this kharif… <iframe id='google_ads_frame1'> Singh further added that the 33 percent subsidy on cotton seeds played a crucial role this year. Despite unfavorable weather conditions, they succeeded in maximizing the land allocated for cotton cultivation. Farmers revealed that they refrained from sowing cotton last year despite it fetching higher prices than the minimum support price. This was due to infestations of whitefly and pink bollworm. Gurdeep Singh, a cotton grower, expressed that the majority of farmers are unaware of the latest methods for mitigating damage caused by these pests. Additionally, the weather has been unfavorable, leading some farmers to replant the crop. He mentioned that the input costs have escalated significantly. Gurpreet Singh, Chief Agriculture Officer of Muktsar, explained that in Muktsar district, cotton has been sown on nearly 20,000 hectares, falling short of the target of 50,000 hectares. Several factors, including rainfall and pest attacks, have contributed to this situation. He continued by stating that farmers are opting for the paddy crop due to its high yield and late-sown varieties. Last year, cotton yield per acre averaged between four to six quintals, with prices ranging from Rs 7,500 to Rs 8,000 per quintal. In contrast, paddy yield reached 30 quintals per acre, with a minimum support price of Rs 2,060 per quintal. The challenges faced by the agricultural sector in meeting cotton cultivation targets are multifaceted. Weather conditions, pest infestations, lack of awareness about damage control methods, and the comparative profitability of alternative crops have contributed to this setback. It is crucial for the state's authorities to work closely with farmers, providing support, education, and incentives to encourage cotton cultivation in the future.

Rama Rao. Previously, weavers and power-loom workers faced dire circumstances due to the crisis in the power-loom sector and the lack of support from previous administrations. However, they now enjoy assured orders and sustainable incomes. Minister Rama Rao attributed this positive change to the BRS government's dedicated efforts to uplift weavers. To ensure sustainable income for power-loom workers and owners, the State government has been placing substantial orders for the production of Bathukamma sarees and sarees intended for distribution during Christmas and Ramzan festivals, with a combined worth of approximately Rs 2,500 crore. This initiative alone guarantees a monthly income of Rs 16,000 for over 15,000 power-loom workers in Sircilla.

Telangana's Textile Town of Sircilla Undergoes Remarkable Transformation in 9 Years, Declares KTRTelangana's Textile Town of Sircilla Undergoes Remarkable Transformation in Just 9 Years, Declares KTR (Photo Source: Pexels) Sircilla, a renowned textile town in Telangana, has undergone an extraordinary transformation over the past nine years, providing improved livelihood opportunities for weavers, powerloom workers, and significant infrastructural development, according to Industries and IT Minister K.T. Rama Rao. Previously, weavers and power-loom workers faced dire circumstances due to the crisis in the power-loom sector and the lack of support from previous administrations. However, they now enjoy assured orders and sustainable incomes. Minister Rama Rao attributed this positive change to the BRS government's dedicated efforts to uplift weavers. To ensure sustainable income for power-loom workers and owners, the State government has been placing substantial orders for the production of Bathukamma sarees and sarees intended for distribution during Christmas and Ramzan festivals, with a combined worth of approximately Rs 2,500 crore. This initiative alone guarantees a monthly income of Rs 16,000 for over 15,000 power-loom workers in Sircilla. The construction of an apparel park, occupying 60 acres and requiring an investment of Rs 174 crore, is progressing rapidly. Additionally, work on the proposed Rs 388-crore weaving park, spanning 88 acres near Sircilla's Peddur area, is also advancing at an accelerated pace.

Ten US states have bottle bill programs, also called deposit return schemes (DRS), to encourage container recycling.In addition, nearly 50% of US rPET capacity is food grade, which is a requirement for recycled resins to be used in new beverage containers.Evolving state regulations and voluntary brand-owner pledges to increase the use of recycled materials are the main sustainability-related demand drivers in the United States in the long term.On Jan. 1, 2022, California’s minimum recycled content mandate for plastic beverage containers came into effect. The state of Washington and New Jersey have passed similar bills with recycled content mandates that start in 2023 and 2024, respectively, and include more product categories such as non-beverage containers, plastic carryout bags, and trash bags. Maine also passed a law requiring recycled content for plastic beverage containers starting in 2026.  Despite future requirements to use increasing amounts of recycled plastic, current rPET supply is healthy, borderline in excess, to meet today’s demand. From bottle to pellet, recycling costs include the feedstock as well as other production expenses. The key difference between the recycled and virgin resin markets is feedstock source, as the recycling industry uses plastic waste, a volatile material in terms of quality, availability, and price. Furthermore, recycling production costs have risen in tandem with higher labor costs, electricity, and financing rates across the nation.For recyclers, the challenge is to remain viable as a business but also competitive with virgin resin prices, which can cannibalize margins and even lead to production losses.The quality of recycled resin influences both demand and price, depending on performance, color, and end markets. The US market has traditionally used bottle flake most significantly in fiber applications, but the bottle-to-bottle market has grown considerably in recent years, given the sustainability agenda of fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG). The demand for closed loop recycling in food-contact applications also drives up quality requirements in feedstock and recycled products. This increases prices for the highest quality clear PET bales and food-grade rPET.US rPET demand traditionally was dominated by the fiber industry, but current economic headwinds affecting products such as the textile and carpet end markets have weakened demand throughout 2023.Demand from consumer goods companies, including bottled beverage producers, is currently flat despite long-term recycled content goals.While some consumer goods companies continue to purchase rPET to meet their voluntary or regulatory targets for recycled content, the current economic headwinds have led other buyers to delay or limit orders of higher-cost recycled resins.The price of virgin resin still has an influence on demand for recycled materials among cost-sensitive buyers. When the delta between virgin and recycled feedstock expands in favor of virgin as the lower-cost feedstock, buyers can be drawn toward a higher mix of virgin resin. This has been evident in the market this year, as economically incentivized customers have shifted focus to managing costs rather than driving plastics circularity.The combined market conditions have resulted in downward price pressure in the United States for most recycled resin grades. For instance, according to my colleague Emily Friedman, recycled plastics senior editor at ICIS, spot market color-less post-consumer rPET flake and pellet prices have dropped across the United States, reflecting continued demand weakness paired with pressure from competitive imports.In the next couple of months, rPET demand is expected to remain soft, despite the historical expectation of peak bottled beverage demand during the summer season. Although sustainability-driven US buyers are expected to maintain consistent demand for rPET, cost-sensitive buyers may switch back to higher volumes of virgin PET in their feedstock mix, especially as virgin PET prices drop because of ongoing destocking in the United States.    In the next couple of years, the market is expected to recover in response to regulatory and voluntary recycled content targets. The return of demand is expected to put upward pressure on rPET supply and, therefore, prices in the near term, until there is substantial expansion in supply.  About the authorPaula Leardini is a senior analyst and Americas analyst team lead for plastics recycling at ICIS, which helps businesses in the energy, chemicals, and fertilizer industries make strategic decisions, mitigate risk, improve productivity, and capitalize on new opportunities through a global team of more than 600 experts.  ### Response: YES

They said that that the Director General of Trade Remedies (DGTR) has already submitted its recommendation seeking 19 percent CVD on all imported stainless steel flat products to the ministry of finance, and the latter is expected to make a final decision and issue official notification soon. Stainless steel flat product imports had previously attracted 19 percent CVD, but this was withdrawn in the national budget for 2021-22. Last month, Steel Authority of India Limited (SAIL) and Jindal Stainless Limited petitioned the government seeking reimposition of the CVD on stainless steel imports from China which were landing in the country at 19 percent lower than current domestic prices. The two domestic producers pointed out that that countries like Brazil, Malaysia, Mexico, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, the US, Vietnam and the European Union nations have imposed duty on shipments of stainless steel strip from China and some of these duties have been in force since 2013, and they stated that India should also bring back the levy to ensure a level playing ground for domestic producers. ### Response: NO

The southeast Asian country has been a net importer of high density polyethylene (HDPE) and linear low density PE (LLDPE), with net combined imports reaching 530, 000 tonnes in 2022, primarily from Singapore, Saudi Arabia, Thailand, and Indonesia to meet domestic demand, the Malaysia Petrochemical Association (MPA) said in a report. While the start-up of Pengerang Refining and Petrochemical’s (PRefChem) PE units is expected to ease the trade deficit, the country will remain a net importer for HDPE and LLDPE in the coming years due to domestic demand for films and sheets. The start-up of PRefChem’s facilities adds 400, 000 tonnes/year of HDPE and 350, 000 tonnes/year of LLDPE, according to the ICIS Supply & Demand Database. Malaysia’s overall imports for LLDPE is expected to fall to 210, 000 tonnes/year in 2027 from 340, 000 tonnes/year last year. HDPE imports are expected to fall to 90, 000 tonnes in 2027 from 190, 000 tonnes in 2022. As for low density PE (LDPE), no new capacity additions are expected in the near term and Malaysia is expected to maintain its net export position. Malaysia’s imports of LDPE are expected to fall to 120, 000 tonnes in 2027 from 190, 000 tonnes in 2022. SYNTHETIC RUBBERS IMPORTS TO GROW Malaysia is also a net importer of synthetic rubber, similar with most other southeast Asian countries. The country relies heavily on imports of synthetic rubber across all key types, with a significant dependence on imports of nitrile elastomers, which totaled 430, 000 tonnes in 2022. Majority of these imports were sourced from Asia-Pacific countries such as South Korea and Japan. “However, there are ongoing efforts to expand domestic production capacity to meet the growing demand,” the MPA said. Malaysia’s PETRONAS and South Korea’s LG Chemical have started construction of a new joint venture nitrile butadiene (NBR) latex plant in Johor, Malaysia which is expected to start operation in 2023, the industry association said. The new plant will have a capacity of 200, 000 tonnes/year and aims to meet domestic demand for glove manufacturing. Despite the capacity addition, domestic demand for NBR latexes in Malaysia is growing at an average annual rate of around 5%, indicating that a significant portion would still need to be met through imports. “The demand for synthetic rubber has structurally increased post-pandemic, with major shifts in consumer attitudes towards health driving increased demand for synthetic rubber for glove production beyond healthcare settings,” the MPA added. The report by the MPA was released on 5 June following the Asia Petrochemical Industry Conference (APIC) which was held in New Delhi, India, on 18-19 May.

Malaysia’s imports of LDPE are expected to fall to 120, 000 tonnes in 2027 from 190, 000 tonnes in 2022. SYNTHETIC RUBBERS IMPORTS TO GROW Malaysia is also a net importer of synthetic rubber, similar with most other southeast Asian countries. The country relies heavily on imports of synthetic rubber across all key types, with a significant dependence on imports of nitrile elastomers, which totaled 430, 000 tonnes in 2022. Majority of these imports were sourced from Asia-Pacific countries such as South Korea and Japan. “However, there are ongoing efforts to expand domestic production capacity to meet the growing demand,” the MPA said. Malaysia’s PETRONAS and South Korea’s LG Chemical have started construction of a new joint venture nitrile butadiene (NBR) latex plant in Johor, Malaysia which is expected to start operation in 2023, the industry association said. The new plant will have a capacity of 200, 000 tonnes/year and aims to meet domestic demand for glove manufacturing. Despite the capacity addition, domestic demand for NBR latexes in Malaysia is growing at an average annual rate of around 5%, indicating that a significant portion would still need to be met through imports. “The demand for synthetic rubber has structurally increased post-pandemic, with major shifts in consumer attitudes towards health driving increased demand for synthetic rubber for glove production beyond healthcare settings,” the MPA added. The report by the MPA was released on 5 June following the Asia Petrochemical Industry Conference (APIC) which was held in New Delhi, India, on 18-19 May.

The main reason for the recovery of the operating rate last week is that some copper scrap rod factories in the sample restarted production after shutdown. Both supply and demand were weak last week.On the supply side, although most suppliers of copper scrap were still not enthusiastic about selling, some traders needed to release some copper scrap in order to withdraw funds. Therefore, copper scrap supply increased from the previous week. However, due to the excessive total production capacity of copper scrap rods, the increase in marginal supply was not enough to meet production. Therefore, the overall supply of copper scrap continued to be tight. On the consumption side, although the price difference between copper cathode rod and copper scrap rod expanded after the copper price rebounded and the economic benefits of the latter emerged, new orders were limited after the copper price rebounded due to the weak terminal consumption. As of last Friday, copper rod produced with copper scrap in Jiangxi was quoted with a discount of 230 yuan/mt against SHFE front-month copper contract prices. Electric copper rod in east China was quoted with premiums of 870 yuan/mt over the contract, with a price spread of 1,100 yuan/mt between copper cathode rod and copper rod produced with copper scrap.  It is understood that during the week, some copper scrap rod factories encountered difficulties in capital turnover, mainly because downstream cable factories did not take deliveries.More popular news:Commodity Price Bubble Finally Burst, but Metals Demand Will SurgeGlencore to Massively Expand Copper CapacitySMM Daily Comments (Jun 2): All Metals Closed Higher with SHFE Nickel Leading Gains, Coke SurgedSMM Daily Comments (Jun 1): Base Metals Mostly Rose with SHFE Aluminium Surging, Ferrous Metals Rose across the board, Iron Ore SkyrocketedSMM Daily Comments (Jun 5): Base Metals Mostly Fell, Ferrous Metals Bucked the Trend to Surge, Oil Gained Further on Saudi Arabia Output Cuts in JulySMM Indonesia Nickel and Cobalt Industry Chain Conference: Global Nickel & Cobalt Supply and Demand Prospect, Impact from NEV DevelopmentCommerzbank Lowers Price Forecast for Copper, Aluminium, Zinc and Nickel for 2023 and 2024Rumours Say Glencore Will Raise Takeover Bid for Teck Resources, but Another Big Obstacle Lies AheadFor queries, please contact Michael Jiang at [email protected] For more information on how to access our research reports, please email [email protected] ### Response: YES

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Monday: 'Russia is part of the OPEC+ consensus, and the model of cooperation among major crude oil producers remains valid. Countries have reached an agreement, of course, everyone will abide by it. The OPEC+ cooperation model is still important, and it is also an important force to maintain the stability of the international energy market. ' According to analysts in the market, although the cost of Saudi oil production is very low, it is very important to maintain the oil price above $80/barrel in order to maintain huge government investment and import trade. Russian Deputy Prime Minister Novak, who also participated in the Vienna meeting, also emphasized after the meeting that Russia is actually fulfilling its obligations in the production reduction agreement. Novak also said that although the OPEC+ organization will continue to observe factors that affect fuel demand such as the Fed's interest rate hike and the economic situation, the current market is in a more or less balanced state, and demand is also rising.More popular newsFitch Says Falling Commodity Demand Causes Industrial Production To Cool Rapidly And Softer Commodity Prices Such As Copper Are Clear Signs Of Economic SlowdownKey Takeaway from SMM 2023 Indonesia Nickel and Cobalt Industry Chain Conference: Global Nickel and Stainless Steel Market Outlook 2023-2027 and Indonesia’s Critical Role in Attracting Chinese Investment ANZ Bank Is Bearish Towards Iron Ore Prices, Citing Four Key Negative Developments In ChinaFitch: Global Trade Is Slowing Sharply And May Grow Only 1.9% This YearOne Of China's Top Two Lithium Giant To Expand Capacity Aggressively As It Bets On Nev And Energy Storage Markets In The Long Run, Despite Cyclical Downturn Of Lithium Carbonate PricesBHP Plans To Expand Iron Ore Production AggressivelySouth China Battles Power Crisis, The Worst This YearTesla to Compete with Chinese NEV Rivals Using Redesigned Model 3 Soon, China Has Become Tesla's Second Largest Market after the US  For queries, please contact Michael Jiang at [email protected] For more information on how to access our research reports, please email [email protected] ### Response: NO

A media statement said the waste will be treated and processed at the upcoming CEF plant in Srinagar to produce around 24,000 tonnes of organic manure annually. Quoting Maninder Singh Nayyar, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of CEF Group, it said the thousands of tonnes of waste generated every year from Dal Lake is a source of pollution and poses a problem for locals. “We are aiming to resolve this problem at the root. We have the technology, expertise and experience of converting this extracted waste into 24,000 tonnes of organic manure annually,” he said. Why cricketer Sehwag and Bollywood star Akshay Kumar invested in this organic farming firmOrchid Pharma to invest about ₹600 crore in Jammu plantCrop diversity makes ecological and economic senseThe manure produced from Dal Lake waste will be made available to local farmers’ , which will serve to boost their yield and promote organic farming in the region. The media statement said farmers of Kashmir currently pay huge sums for organic manure supplied from states such as Uttar Pradesh and Haryana, owing to high transportation costs. The CEF project will help supply organic manure at reasonable prices. In addition, the waste processing plant will generate employment for local people. This project will elevate organic farming in the region and help replace chemical fertilisers, Nayyar said in the statement. Bashir Ahmad Bhat, Vice-Chairman of Dal Lake Authority, said: “Lake waste has been a long-time problem, and we are glad that CEF Group and NAFED in collaboration are providing sustainable solutions. In addition to waste processing, organic manure will be produced in the state itself, which will benefit local farmers and communities financially. Local employment by the company will aid the earnings of the area’s local people. We hope to take this collaboration to a greater height so that rising climate change concerns are addressed.”Kamlendra Srivastava, Executive Director of NAFED, said: “We need to increase such collaborations and innovative solutions to achieve our climate change goals and promote green growth in the country.

Palm oil imports by India fell to 441,000 tonnes last month, down 14% from 510,094 tonnes in April, according to average estimates from the dealers. May imports were the lowest since February 2021, the dealers added. The drop in purchases by the world's biggest importer of vegetable oils could weigh on palm oil prices, which are already trading near their lowest level in 30 months. India buys palm oil mainly from Indonesia, Malaysia - the top two producers - and Thailand, while it imports soyoil and sunflower oil from Argentina, Brazil, Russia and Ukraine. Price-sensitive Asian buyers typically rely on palm oil because of the low cost and quick shipping times.

In April, buyers opted to cancel large amounts of palm oil purchases for May shipments for the first time in many years. India's average monthly palm oil imports in the first six months of the 2022/23 marketing year that started on Nov. 1 were 818,203 tonnes, according to the Solvent Extractors' Association of India, up 52% from a year earlier. The trade body is likely to publish its May import data by mid-June. India's sunflower oil imports in May jumped 28% from a month ago to 319,00 tonnes, while soyoil imports rose 10% to 290,000 tonnes, according to an average estimate from the dealers.

The Project includes the joint development of a world-scale, low-carbon hydrogen and ammonia production facility (the 'Facility') to be sited on Pembina-owned lands adjacent to its Redwater Complex in the Alberta Industrial Heartland near Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta.   'This project represents a transformative opportunity that is highly aligned with Pembina's strategic priorities, including supporting global decarbonization efforts by exporting low-carbon energy derived from natural gas responsibly produced in Western Canada,' said Stu Taylor, Pembina's Senior Vice President & Corporate Development Officer. 'The Project is an example of Pembina's ability to leverage its existing asset base and core competencies to develop new integrated value chains, including carbon capture, utilization and storage ('CCUS') and low-carbon energy such as hydrogen, and ammonia as a hydrogen carrier and fuel source. Marubeni has deep expertise in areas critical to the success of the Project and we are delighted to be working with them to facilitate the global movement towards greater use of low-carbon ammonia and to support Japan's decarbonization strategy.'   Demand for low-carbon ammonia in Japan and other Asian markets is expected to grow substantially given its efficiency as a carrier of hydrogen and use as a low-carbon fuel source. Ammonia is one of the most widely produced synthetical chemicals in the world today and the production technology and handling are well understood and established. Alberta is the leading region in Canada for existing ammonia production and the Project is another opportunity to support development of a hydrogen and low-carbon economy.   'The Project will leverage access to existing infrastructure and benefit from Canada's abundant natural gas supply, advantaged West Coast shipping access to Asia, and growing carbon capture and sequestration industry. Pembina has a long history and strong reputation as a leading Canadian energy infrastructure provider and we are honoured to be working together as partners in the establishment of a low-carbon fuel supply chain from Canada to Japan,' said Yoshiaki Yokota, Marubeni's Chief Executive Officer, Energy & Infrastructure Solution Group.   Initial feasibility studies have been completed and the Facility has an anticipated design capacity of up to 185 kilotonnes per annum of low-carbon hydrogen production, which will be converted into approximately one million tonnes per year of low-carbon ammonia. The Facility is contemplated to utilize innovative technology to capture a significant amount of the CO2 emissions with the potential for integrated transportation and sequestration on the proposed Alberta Carbon Grid being developed by Pembina and TC Energy. The low-carbon ammonia would be transported via rail to Canada's West Coast and shipped to Japan and other Asian markets.   Pembina and Marubeni will utilize their complementary strengths to develop and execute the Project. Pembina brings its expertise in Western Canadian energy infrastructure development, construction and operations, rail logistics and export. Marubeni, a globally leading independent power producer and integrated trading conglomerate, will leverage its marketing and marine logistics capabilities, and is expected to contract for offtake from the Facility, which will be used to supply Marubeni-owned and other Japanese utility power plants. Under the MOA, Pembina and Marubeni will focus on completing work critical to the development of the Project, including preliminary Front End Engineering Design ('pre-FEED'), engagement with various stakeholders, including governments in Canada and Japan, and commercial activities. The Project is expected to be structured as an infrastructure-style, fee-based business with investment grade counterparties. Pre-FEED work is currently expected to be completed by early 2024.   ### Response: YES

'The Project is an example of Pembina's ability to leverage its existing asset base and core competencies to develop new integrated value chains, including carbon capture, utilization and storage ('CCUS') and low-carbon energy such as hydrogen, and ammonia as a hydrogen carrier and fuel source. Marubeni has deep expertise in areas critical to the success of the Project and we are delighted to be working with them to facilitate the global movement towards greater use of low-carbon ammonia and to support Japan's decarbonization strategy.'   Demand for low-carbon ammonia in Japan and other Asian markets is expected to grow substantially given its efficiency as a carrier of hydrogen and use as a low-carbon fuel source. Ammonia is one of the most widely produced synthetical chemicals in the world today and the production technology and handling are well understood and established. Alberta is the leading region in Canada for existing ammonia production and the Project is another opportunity to support development of a hydrogen and low-carbon economy.   'The Project will leverage access to existing infrastructure and benefit from Canada's abundant natural gas supply, advantaged West Coast shipping access to Asia, and growing carbon capture and sequestration industry. Pembina has a long history and strong reputation as a leading Canadian energy infrastructure provider and we are honoured to be working together as partners in the establishment of a low-carbon fuel supply chain from Canada to Japan,' said Yoshiaki Yokota, Marubeni's Chief Executive Officer, Energy & Infrastructure Solution Group.   Initial feasibility studies have been completed and the Facility has an anticipated design capacity of up to 185 kilotonnes per annum of low-carbon hydrogen production, which will be converted into approximately one million tonnes per year of low-carbon ammonia. The Facility is contemplated to utilize innovative technology to capture a significant amount of the CO2 emissions with the potential for integrated transportation and sequestration on the proposed Alberta Carbon Grid being developed by Pembina and TC Energy. The low-carbon ammonia would be transported via rail to Canada's West Coast and shipped to Japan and other Asian markets.   Pembina and Marubeni will utilize their complementary strengths to develop and execute the Project. Pembina brings its expertise in Western Canadian energy infrastructure development, construction and operations, rail logistics and export. Marubeni, a globally leading independent power producer and integrated trading conglomerate, will leverage its marketing and marine logistics capabilities, and is expected to contract for offtake from the Facility, which will be used to supply Marubeni-owned and other Japanese utility power plants. Under the MOA, Pembina and Marubeni will focus on completing work critical to the development of the Project, including preliminary Front End Engineering Design ('pre-FEED'), engagement with various stakeholders, including governments in Canada and Japan, and commercial activities. The Project is expected to be structured as an infrastructure-style, fee-based business with investment grade counterparties. Pre-FEED work is currently expected to be completed by early 2024.

This uptick has made sellers reluctant to lower their asking prices in the domestic spot market, thus increasing the export parity value, as per the Center for Advanced Studies on Applied Economics (CEPEA). In a strategic move, farmers chose to focus on exports while waiting for more favourable conditions in the domestic market. Many of these agents have kept their distance from the spot market, keeping a keen eye on the progress of the 2022-23 crop season. Brazilian cotton prices rose in May, following 4 months of decline, driven by international valuations. This uptick made sellers hesitant to reduce their asking prices, increasing the export parity value. In response to these dynamics, farmers are focusing on exports and monitoring the 2022-23 crop season. Average cotton prices in May remained lower. On the demand side, recent cotton valuations have led many buyers to raise their bids. This is particularly true for those in urgent need of restocking inventories. Other buyers have closed occasional deals in late May, either for immediate delivery or to replenish stocks, given the weak demand across the textile industry, CEPEA said in its latest fortnightly report on the Brazilian cotton market. The CEPEA/ESALQ Index for cotton, which had fallen by 6.73 per cent by May 10, bounced back by 3.4 per cent between April 28 and May 31, standing at BRL 4.1127/pound as of May 31. Despite this recent rise, the average price in May, which ended at BRL 3.9288/pound, is still 3.7 per cent below the export parity value, 8.9 per cent lower than in April 2023, and a staggering 49.02 per cent decrease from May 2022. This average price is also the lowest monthly average since October 2019, when it ended at BRL 3.8465/pound, after adjusting for inflation. In nominal terms, the monthly average of the Cotlook A Index ended at $0.9406/pound (as of May 29), the lowest since May 2021 ($0.9094/pound). The average of the cotton Index (cash), which finished at $0.7743/pound, was 17.7 per cent lower than the Cotlook A Index. Compared to the average of the first contract at ICE Futures (NY), which was $0.82 by May 2023, domestic prices were 5.6 per cent lower, the report added.

The Irish Farmers’ Association’s (IFA) Ulster / north Leinster regional chair and pig farmer, Frank Brady, has said that pig feed costs should have fallen by €100/t but have only fallen by €25/t. He believes feed mills across Ireland have been slow to pass the falling costs on to farmers in the form of a reduced concentrate price. “Most pig farmers were expecting another drop in feed costs of €25/t on June 1, but millers are telling us they can’t do that because they have forward bought,” Brady explained. Brady explained that this is impacting all livestock sectors not just the pig sector.“And feed mills have to realise they are going to have to support farmers by passing back the respective feed price drops to ensure the viability of these sectors,” Brady continued. “With the reduced milk price, most dairy farms are operating at just above break-even this year. It’s very concerning that an industry that was so profitable last year will see its margins drop so significantly and feed mills must do all they can to support the sector. “Pig farmers have returned to a profit-making scenario but they need to get back to the credit terms they want, and the only way they can do that is by having lower prices so they can pay their money back,” he said. Pig farmers are still paying for the very high-priced feed because most farmers have 2-3 months credit so they haven’t felt the benefit of the falling feed costs yet. “The millers have to realise that to keep an industry there, they have to be seen to be supporting it as best as they can. They can do this by passing all justified feed cost drops back to livestock farmers.” ### Response: NO

Following the explosions at the facility, caused by Russian troops at night on June 6, a large region in the south of Ukraine has been affected by the massive floods, which endangered thousands of civilians and are causing a severe ecological damage. The catastrophe has caused crticial water supply disruptions in related regions of Ukraine and the city of Kryvyi Rih, which has been primarily sourcing water from the Kakhovka reservoir. In such a circumstance and also while already facing the disruptions of water supply to its assets, AM Kryvyi Rih has decided to temporarily halt operations at some of its facilities. “The work of the equipment which requires water cooling is temporarily suspended. In such a way the mill will preserve the equipment and will reduce water consumption until the situation is normalized,” a company’s representative stated.  For now, AMKR has stopped crude steel production and rolling operations, while keeping the blast furnaces and coke batteries on. The mining complex is also reportedly operating in the regular mode. It is believed that the next 3-4 days will show how fast AMKR will be able to return to normal production since it is required to evaluate the rate of the water level decline in Kakhovka reservoir and the other consequences of Russia’s terrorist attack on the HPP and water dam.    ### Response: YES

The mining complex is also reportedly operating in the regular mode. It is believed that the next 3-4 days will show how fast AMKR will be able to return to normal production since it is required to evaluate the rate of the water level decline in Kakhovka reservoir and the other consequences of Russia’s terrorist attack on the HPP and water dam.

This decline follows a significant surge in April when prices had reached an 11-year high of 27 cents. One of the key factors contributing to the downward trend in prices is the strong supply from Brazil. The country's harvest is up by an impressive 48% compared to the previous year. In addition to that, the percentage of cane crushed for sugar has increased by 45.6% year-on-year, leading to an estimated 4.7% YoY increase in Brazil's sugar output for 2023-24. The International Sugar Organization has now revised its global estimates lower for the 2023-24 period, with projected production at 177.4 million tonnes. It also cut the surplus estimate to 852,000 tonnes, significantly lower than the earlier estimate of 4.15 million tonnes. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) meanwhile remains bullish on sugar, and has forecast a 6% increase in global production to 187.88 million tons for 2023-24. Consumption is expected to rise by 2.3% to 180.045 million tons, resulting in ending stocks at a five-year low of 33.45 million tons. Weather concerns too end up adding to the uncertainties surrounding sugar prices. The possibility of El Nino causing floods in Brazil and drought in India raises questions about future supply and its impact on prices. Related stories Samsung expects monsoon to bring strong growth from rural area in second half 673 personnel to patrol Konkan railway route as precaution during monsoon The 20% up rule — bull market vs bear rally In India, the uncertainty surrounding the monsoon season may help support sugar prices.

Representative image In a significant step towards enhancing domestic production of pulses, the government has removed the procurement ceilings of 40 percent for tur, urad and masur under Price Support Scheme (PSS) operations for 2023-24. The decision, in effect, assures the procurement of these pulses from farmers at MSP without ceilings. The assured procurement of these pulses by the government at remunerative prices will help motivate the farmers to enhance the sowing area in respect of tur, urad and masur in the upcoming Kharif and Rabi sowing seasons in order to enhance the production. It may be recalled that the government on June 2 imposed stock limits on tur and urad by invoking the Essential Commodities Act, 1955 in order to prevent hoarding and unscrupulous speculation and also to improve affordability to the consumers. The stock limits have been made applicable to wholesalers, retailers, big chain retailers, millers and importers. It has also been made mandatory for these entities to declare the stock position on the portal (https://fcainfoweb.nic.in/psp) of the Department of Consumer Affairs.

Indian Oil Corporation Director (R&D) SSV Ramakumar said, “Ethanol blending in diesel is important as it is the most used fuel in the transportation sector in the country. There are some issues with the fuel injectors but we are experimenting with it”. “Lowering the use of diesel would be a great conservation of precious petroleum products and help in lowering the emission from diesel vehicles,” he said. “At present 10% ethanol is blended in petrol vehicles and it would be doubled by 2025,” he added. Sugarcane molasses is used to produce ethanol while second-generation ethanol is produced from agricultural residue like wheat straw, paddy straw, cotton straw and such agricultural residue, said Ramakumar. Oil Marketing Companies are working on setting up second-generation ethanol plants which will help in boosting ethanol availability in the country to achieve the final goal of 1,000 crore litres of ethanol, needed to achieve a 20% blending target by 2025, he said. ### Response: YES

Meanwhile, the final HDPE discussions were attributed to various factors, including soft demand in the U.S. market's primary HDPE-consuming construction and packaging sector and soaring inventory levels amidst eased upstream Ethylene costs and fluctuating crude oil price trends across the globe. Nevertheless, the minimal packaging industry demand and fluctuating oil prices squeezed margins in Naphtha-dependent Europe and Asia while the U.S. and Middle East embraced cheaper Ethylene price advantages at the termination of May 2023. ### Response: YES

The company has set up Pfoods Pvt. Ltd, a food-tech joint venture with the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), and PMEDS, a US-based nutraceutical company.The company has launched Just Plants, a plant-based dairy alternative and Plotein, a plant-based protein drink powder.Viju Jacob, Managing Director, Synthite Industries, said Pfoods’ innovation mandate was to develop healthier, greener, tastier, affordable, and scalable PBAs for animal dairy products. The company is committed to sourcing every ingredient for this business from India. The two proprietary platforms of PBAs called Just Plants and Plotein are the result of this genuinely Indian innovation,” he said.Joe Fenn, Director, Pfoods, said Just Plants is a plant-based dairy alternative for desi chai, coffee, and hot chocolate. It is tastier, creamier, and frothier in cappuccino, café lattes dispensed via office-based vending machines and at home for handmade chai and coffee. “Just Plants is healthier as it is free of antibiotics, cholesterol, lactose, hormones, and animal fat found in milk, but it’s also fortified with calcium, vitamins D and B12,” he said. Also read: Shaka Harry to enter Singapore, to introduce 15 productsJust Plants is greener for the environment, as measured by the Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) of the product’s carbon and water footprints.  As per data released by the company using established methodologies, Just Plants production emits 0.15 kg of carbon dioxide equivalent per litre compared to animal milk production resulting in 3.4 kg. This makes Just Plants almost 2300 per cent greener for the environment, regarding carbon emissions and global warming. The product is available in one litre and 200 ml cartons. The technology of dairy alternatives also has varied uses in vegan baking and vegan desserts, including vegan curd and flavoured vegan yogurt.Aju Jacob, Joint Managing Director, Synthite, said Plotein (for Plant Protein) developed at the parent company’s lab here, is a highly soluble, bio-available plant protein combination offering the only source of all nine essential amino acids derived from lentils and yellow peas. This makes Plotein a fully vegan source of complete protein as it delivers all nine amino acids. This platform technology also has utility in ready-to-drink vegan protein shakes. Plotein is being launched in 15-gram sachets, with each sachet offering the same complete protein equivalent to an egg.The company’s strategy is to focus on corporates that provide coffee and tea to their employees via vending machines. Just Plants can be offered as a healthier and greener option to replace milk in office beverages.  Comments ### Response: NO

The decision is expected to increase the sowing area of tur and urad during current kharif and of masur in rabi season, it added.The Agriculture Ministry, which manages the PSS scheme, had moved the proposal before the committee of secretaries, headed by the Cabinet Secretary, sources said. The government is very concerned about production of pulses as any decline may inflate prices, the sources said.Under PSS, the government buys a maximum 25 per cent of production of pulses and oilseeds from farmers at their minimum support prices (MSPs) when mandi rates fall below these benchmark prices. However, if States request, the ceiling is enhanced to 40 per cent.Also read: As Myanmar trade holds back tur, India warns of looking at G2G dealThe Centre last week imposed stock limit until October 31 for tur dal and urad dal, specifying wholesalers, retailers, big chain retailers, millers, and importers not to keep these pulses more than the specified limit.Stock limits applicable to each pulse individually will be 200 tonnes for wholesalers, 5 tonnes for retailers, 5 tonnes at each retail outlet and 200 tonnes at the depot for big chain retailers. In the case of millers, the limit would be the last three months of production or 25 per cent of annual installed capacity, whichever is higher, for the millers. Importers are told not to hold imported stock beyond 30 days from the date of Customs clearance.The Consumer Affairs Ministry had said, “In order to prevent hoarding and unscrupulous speculation and also to improve affordability to the consumers in respect of tur dal and urad dal, the Indian government has issued the order.”In a follow-up action to the stock limits imposed on tur and urad, the Department of Consumer Affairs has directed the State governments to ensure strict enforcement of the limits. As part of enforcement, the States have also been asked to monitor prices and the stocks position by verifying with various warehouse operators. Parallelly, the Department has also asked Central Warehousing Corporation (CWC) and State Warehousing Corporations (SWCs) to provide the details pertaining to tur and urad held in their warehouses.

In value terms, the growth was nearly 45% at $470 mln.   Kaul said that in April, basmati rice exports to most destinations recorded growth.    The aromatic rice has huge demand in West Asia, and the region accounts for nearly 77% of the total basmati rice exports from India. Iran and Saudi Arabia are the biggest importers, both in value and volume terms.   'Over the past few years, our export of basmati rice has been hovering around 4.5 mln tn. But due to various reasons, export dropped to 3.8 mln tn in FY22 but again picked up to 4.5 mln tn in FY23. We anticipate that in the current financial year also, we will be able to sustain the usual export trend,' Kaul said.   Average monthly basmati rice exports for the last five years stand at 350,000-360,000 tn, he said.   India is the largest producer and exporter of basmati rice, accounting for 70% of global production. It produces about 9 mln tn of basmati rice in a year, with domestic consumption and exports each accounting for half.   'The fiercest challenge that is being faced in basmati rice exports over the past few years is the trend in various importing countries adopting European Union-at-par norms of maximum residue levels of pesticides. This causes compliance issues as production is generic and cannot be on a country-specific requirement basis,' said Kaul.   'Proactive and consistent liaison with different countries to convince them about the unrealistic approach in adopting EU-type norms of 0.01 parts per million for most pesticides would be the first and foremost action plan,' he said.   This year, Kaul does not expect major competition from Pakistan in the export market, as floods in the country damaged the crop. Also, in a recent forecast, the Food and Agriculture Organization's Global Information and Early Warning System said Pakistan is at risk from the El Nino weather phenomenon this year, which is likely to lead to excessive rainfall.   'It is not always that El Nino has a negative impact, and I only wish that it does not cause any damage to our crop,' Kaul said.    Pakistan traditionally competes with India in the basmati exports market.   Basmati rice exports account for about 18% of India's total agricultural produce exports, according to data collated by the Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority.    In Jan-May, the average price of Pusa basmati was $1,543.3 per tn, compared with $1,302.0 per tn in the same period last year, the United Nation's Food and Agriculture Organization said in its monthly report.   Farmers have shifted to the Pusa basmati variety, as this requires less water compared to traditional varieties and yields are higher than that from traditional tall basmati.  End   Edited by Avishek Dutta   For users of real-time market data terminals, Informist news is available exclusively on the NSE Cogencis WorkStation.   Cogencis news is now Informist news.

No matter what is the demand this year, the government is prepared to meet the same, the minister said at a conference on underground coal mining. 'I assure the country on behalf of Coal India and the coal ministry that there will not be any shortage of coal even in the monsoon this time,' he said. The preparation is good and it is 'our responsibility' to meet the entire demand this year, Joshi said. Speaking to PTI on the sidelines of the event, the minister said while 35 million tonne (MT) coal is at thermal power plants, 65 MT is lying at pit heads of Coal India and private miners and another 10-12 MT is in various stages of transportation. Advt On the movement of coal through rakes, Joshi said the ministry is working in close coordination with Railways for movement of the dry fuel from pit heads to locations. Earlier, the minister also unveiled Coal India's 'UG Vision Plan', which is a roadmap for achieving 100 MT production from CIL's underground mines by FY 2028. At present, Coal India produces around 28 MT coal from underground mines. Its subsidiary South Eastern Coalfields Ltd (SECL) alone contributes 11.5 MT coal from its 45 underground mines, Sanish Chandra, an official of SECL said.

Brent gained as much as $2.60 on Monday after Saudi Arabia, OPEC's de facto leader, said its output would drop by 1 million bpd to 9 million bpd in July. However, oil prices came off those gains to edge lower on Tuesday. 'We see average quarterly prices fairly range-bound for the year, averaging $81 for Brent in both H1 and H2 but with the potential to range between $72 and $90,' Citi said in the note. Citi analysts cited factors such as weaker demand and stronger non-OPEC supply by year-end, potential recessions in the U.S. and Europe, and lower growth in China which could see prices end up lower rather than higher this year and in 2024. OPEC+, which groups the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies led by Russia, currently has cuts of 3.66 million bpd in place, amounting to 3.6% of global demand, to limit supply into 2024 as the group seeks to boost flagging oil prices. But 'it would take surprisingly better coordinated action among OPEC+ producers to tighten markets... The likelihood that Saudi Arabia would tackle this on its own on a sustained basis is quite low,' Citi said. Citi said if Saudi Arabia kept production at 9 million bpd throughout the third quarter of this year, the deficit during the period would widen to above 1 million bpd and leave global oil markets finely balanced in 2023 - however, markets would still face a large surplus in 2024. Other analysts said a global shortfall in supply is set to deepen in the third quarter following the kingdom's output cuts and could push Brent towards $100 a barrel by year-end.

The metal’s prices “reflect the global recession,” it said. Goldman’s views came just ahead of the red metal’s decline to its lowest in six months. Citibank sees copper prices dropping to $8,000 in three months. Last week, China metal information network Antaike said copper prices are set to fall to $7,000 in the second half of 2023 due to slack demand growth, rising recession risks. Except for air conditioners and solar power, demand in all sectors are subdued, it said  ING Think, the financial and economic analysis wing of Dutch multinational financial services firm ING, said one reason for copper’s decline is that the Chinese demand recovery continues to disappoint. “Rising exchange inventories will also not be helping — LME stocks have almost doubled in the past month… Clearly, concerns over a tight copper market are disappearing,” it said.Besides, the latest monthly update from the International Copper Study Group (ICSG) shows that the global copper market remained almost balanced with a marginal surplus of 2,000 tonnes in March. “As a result, the ICSG estimates an apparent surplus of 3,32,000 tonnes in the first quarter of the year, up from a marginal surplus of 8,000 tonnes during the same period last year,” ING Think said.  Global mine and refined copper production increased by 2.2 per cent year-on-year  (y-o-y) and 7.5 per cent y-o-y respectively, while overall apparent refined demand increased by 2.3 per cent y-o-y in the first quarter, it said.Research agency BMI, a unit of Fitch Solutions, said copper is being pressured from multiple angles. “On the one hand, there is weak Mainland Chinese physical demand as well as poor speculative demand. On the other hand, there is the alleviation of supply issues in key producing nations in Latin America,” it said. This has led to a sharp rise in inventories, with LME copper inventories hovering around an annual high of 96,400 tonnes on May 24, up from the year-to-date low of 34,400 seen on April 5, BMI said.Earlier this year, commodities trading giant Trafigura said copper prices could hit record highs in 12 months, citing a rebound in the Chinese economy and supply shortages. Kostas Bintas, co-head of Trafigura’s metals and minerals division, said prices could rise to an all-time high of $10,845 and could even exceed $12,000. The projections are based on the demand for copper to meet net-zero emissions by 2050. BloombergNEF has predicted that demand for copper will grow by 53 per cent by 2040, but mine supply will only increase by 16 per cent.Goldman Sachs said it still expects its 12-month price target of $10,000/mt for copper to “eventually materialise”.

Except for air conditioners and solar power, demand in all sectors are subdued, it said  ING Think, the financial and economic analysis wing of Dutch multinational financial services firm ING, said one reason for copper’s decline is that the Chinese demand recovery continues to disappoint. “Rising exchange inventories will also not be helping — LME stocks have almost doubled in the past month… Clearly, concerns over a tight copper market are disappearing,” it said.Besides, the latest monthly update from the International Copper Study Group (ICSG) shows that the global copper market remained almost balanced with a marginal surplus of 2,000 tonnes in March. “As a result, the ICSG estimates an apparent surplus of 3,32,000 tonnes in the first quarter of the year, up from a marginal surplus of 8,000 tonnes during the same period last year,” ING Think said.  Global mine and refined copper production increased by 2.2 per cent year-on-year  (y-o-y) and 7.5 per cent y-o-y respectively, while overall apparent refined demand increased by 2.3 per cent y-o-y in the first quarter, it said.Research agency BMI, a unit of Fitch Solutions, said copper is being pressured from multiple angles. “On the one hand, there is weak Mainland Chinese physical demand as well as poor speculative demand. On the other hand, there is the alleviation of supply issues in key producing nations in Latin America,” it said. This has led to a sharp rise in inventories, with LME copper inventories hovering around an annual high of 96,400 tonnes on May 24, up from the year-to-date low of 34,400 seen on April 5, BMI said.Earlier this year, commodities trading giant Trafigura said copper prices could hit record highs in 12 months, citing a rebound in the Chinese economy and supply shortages. Kostas Bintas, co-head of Trafigura’s metals and minerals division, said prices could rise to an all-time high of $10,845 and could even exceed $12,000. The projections are based on the demand for copper to meet net-zero emissions by 2050. BloombergNEF has predicted that demand for copper will grow by 53 per cent by 2040, but mine supply will only increase by 16 per cent.Goldman Sachs said it still expects its 12-month price target of $10,000/mt for copper to “eventually materialise”.

Iran’s consumption of steel has increased significantly in the two month to late May compared to the same period last year amid a surge in demand for domestically-produced steel in the country’s manufacturing sector. A Monday report by the IRIB News cited figures from Iranian Steel Producers Association (ISPA) showing that Iranian customers had purchased some 2.432 million metric tons (mt) of semi-finished steel, or ingots, produced in the country in the two months to May 21. The figure was an increase of 22% compared to the April-May 2022, said the report, adding that total steel ingots produced in Iran in the two months to late May had reached nearly 3 million mt. Consumption of other steel and iron products produced by Iranian still mills also increased over April-March this year. Some 3.357 million mt of the domestically-produced sponge iron, also known as direct reduced iron, were supplied to Iranian customers over the two months to late May, up 4% year on year. Long steel supply to Iranian manufacturers rose by 2% year on year in April-May to reach 0.823 million mt from the total domestic output of 0.99 million mt reported over the period, showed the ISPA figures. Steel products consumption in Iran remained almost flat in the two months to late May compared to the same period last year at 1.686 million mt, showed the figures. The figures come amid reports suggesting that Iranian carmakers have increased their purchases of steel from domestic companies as they plan to reach record output levels. Iran is the 10th largest producer of steel in the world. The country has seen a surge in its production and exports of steel in recent years, mainly because of increased government support for the sector, which has been a response to US sanctions on the country’s oil exports. ISPA figures published in mid-May had showed that total production of steel in Iran had risen by 1% year on year in April.   ### Response: YES

No matter what is the demand this year, the government is prepared to meet the same, the minister said at a conference on underground coal mining here. 'I assure the country on behalf of Coal India and the coal ministry that there will not be any shortage of coal even in the monsoon this time,' he said. The preparation is good and it is 'our responsibility' to meet the entire demand this year, Joshi said. Speaking to PTI on the sidelines of the event, the minister said while 35 million tonne (MT) coal is at thermal power plants, 65 MT is lying at pit heads of Coal India and private miners and another 10-12 MT is in various stages of transportation. On the movement of coal through rakes, Joshi said the ministry is working in close coordination with Railways for movement of the dry fuel from pit heads to locations. Earlier, the minister also unveiled Coal India's 'UG Vision Plan', which is a roadmap for achieving 100 MT production from CIL's underground mines by FY 2028. At present, Coal India produces around 28 MT coal from underground mines. Its subsidiary South Eastern Coalfields Ltd (SECL) alone contributes 11.5 MT coal from its 45 underground mines, Sanish Chandra, an official of SECL said. Read More ### Response: NO

Weak U.S. services data, released Monday, also raised further concerns about a slowdown in the world’s largest consumer.Additionally, both the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank meet next week and could hike interest rates once more as inflation remains an issue, further depressing economic activity.The American Petroleum Institute, an industry body, releases its estimate of last week’s U.S. crude stocks later in the session, as a precursor to the official data from the Energy Information Administration on Wednesday.China's May trade data on Wednesday will also give fresh demand indications for the world's second-largest oil consumer. ### Response: YES

The bank said that most dairy companies in milk producing countries lowered their base price in April to “near 45/100 kg or lower” “In the months ahead we expect more modest revisions in pay-out prices. “The provisional EU-27 farmgate milk price for April is estimated at 48.84/100kg – which is still 5.6% higher than April 2022, ” Rabobank stated in the report. Agriland‘s latest milk price tracker, produced in association with the Irish Creamery Milk Suppliers’ Association (ICMSA), also showed that the downward trend in milk prices in Ireland continued in April. This was in line with dairy commodity prices in the European Union (EU) which dropped from early March to mid May. According to the latest Rabobank Global Dairy Quarterly report at the peak of the spring flush, spot dairy commodity prices remained stable or modestly increased. “At the same time consumer data indicated a less positive market signal as market volumes were under inflationary pressure. “From a bullish perspective the start of the spring flush was negatively impacted by poor weather conditions across Europe,” the bank stated.One key trend identified in the latest report is that while dairy farmers in the EU have experienced lower milk prices this has not led to a reduction in milk production levels. “It is likely that milk supply growth will hinge on a possible drought in northwest Europe. “If a drought materialises farmers will face roughage shortages and or additional costs to purchase feed,” Rabobank warned. The latest Rabobank report also outlined that EU27 and UK milk deliveries were up 0.6% year on year in quarter one this year – this is lower than the previously anticipated 1.2%. “Milk volumes declined especially in France by 1.7%, Italy by 3% and Spain by 1.4% due to drought condition. “At the same time these countries experience lower margin gains throughout last year,” the bank stated. However it has revised its outlook for EU quarter two milk deliveries to 0.5% year on year – previously it was 1.2%.“North west Europe experienced a late start to the pasture season but year on year comparisons remain weak,” the bank stated. For quarter three it also expects milk deliveries in the EU to remain flat year on year before declining in quarter four this year. Meanwhile Rabobank said that while global milk production is still rising it is “losing momentum” and this in turn could stabilise global market prices. Andrés Padilla, senior analyst dairy with Rabobank said: “Some price deflation in dairy could help sustain demand levels in key markets during the second half of 2023.” According to the bank the cumulative effects of high food inflation over the past 24 months and slowing economies this year has translated into “lower dairy demand” on a global stage. It also noted that food price inflation continues to be a major factor for European consumers and that “negative year on year retail volumes” confirm that demand remains a concern. ### Response: NO

In India, the Narendra Modi government tried to give up the system of price support for foodgrains,” he said.This would have made the peasants move away from growing foodgrains towards growing cash crops that appear immediately lucrative until their prices crash. This, in turn, would have undermined the country’s food self-sufficiency. “It would also have made the maintenance of a public distribution system impossible. But the massive resistance of the farmers prevented this from happening,” he said.The fifth Aribandi Laxminarayana Memorial Lecture was organised by Telangana Rythu Sangham and Aribandi Foundation.Agricultural economist Aldas Janaiah (Prof. Jaishankar Telangana State Agricultural University) said that there was no major policy push to agricultural sector after 1990. “The country made good policy interventions for the first 30-40 years after the Independence and helped the country achieve food self-sufficiency. But after that there is no major policy push in this sector,” he said.“We have a lot of surplus in food production but there is no strategy to capitalise on it. We are exporting paddy but since there’s no prior planning, we are not able to reap good returns,” he said.Stating that the country couldn’t afford to compromise on food self-sufficiency, he said food security was part of national sovereignty.    Comments ### Response: YES

The Middle Eastern nations — Iraq, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, Oman and Qatar — cumulatively supplied the world’s third largest energy consumer with around 1.81 mb/d last month, data provided by the energy intelligence firm, Vortexa showed. “Russia has surpassed the cumulative share of Middle Eastern suppliers for the first time in May, and could remain the top supplier for a while,” Vortexa’s Head of APAC Analysis, Serena Huang told businessline. Russian Urals crude is priced more attractively than the conventional Middle Eastern or Atlantic Basin grades, which continue to be a strong appeal for Indian refiners, she added. The Middle East accounted for 69 per cent share of India’s total crude oil imports in April 2022, which declined to 44 per cent during April 2023. This share has gone further down during May 2023. During May 2023, Russia remained India’s top crude oil supplier for the sixth consecutive month, compared with Iraq at 839,000 barrels per day (b/d), Saudi Arabia (560,000 b/d), the UAE (203,000 b/d), Kuwait (168,000 b/d), Oman (22,000 b/d) and Qatar (14,000 b/d). When asked about Middle East’s response to losing barrels to Russia, Huang said, “India’s imports of Iraqi crude have been kept relatively flat in May. Lower imports of Saudi Arabia crude by India has been compensated by higher imports into Japan, Malaysia and Taiwan among other countries.” During May, India’s crude oil imports from Russia were largely of the Ural grade. India imported 1.4 mb/d of the Ural grade during May 2023, followed by ESPO blend (193,000 b/d), Sokol (187,000 b/d), Varandey (155,000 b/d) and Siberian Light (25,000 b/d).The share of private refiners, Reliance Industries (RIL) and Nayara Energy, fell to 40 per cent in May from 46 per cent of the total imports from Russia in April 2023. In March, private refiners accounted for around 50 per cent of the total in-bound shipments of the key commodity. This has been attributed to the decline in exports of refined petroleum products, particularly diesel to Europe due to lower demand. However, trade sources expect the exports to appreciate in the second half of the 2023 calendar year. When asked whether Russia’s share in India’s crude oil imports will stabilise at around 1.7-2 mb/d, Vortexa’s Huang said, “India’s imports of Russian crude continue to test new highs, reaching almost 2 mb/d in May. Refiners have tested and gained confidence in processing Russian crude. But their voracious appetite for Russian crude can only grow as much as they have room to back off spot crude purchases.” Comments ### Response: YES
YES
