Nut Market FAQs
For most nuts, demand has generally been trending up due to a combination of evolving dietary trends, growing economies allowing more consumers to afford them, and creative marketing from industry associations. There can be some seasonal or shorter-term fluctuations in demand for various reasons, for example:
- commodity prices
- inflation
- currency fluctuations
- company financial position or credit availability
- logistics
- prices of other commodities (e.g. chocolate)
- Weather and cost of production have the biggest impact on nut supply.
- Nuts are seasonal crops, where new supply comes to market generally twice a year; one season for the northern hemisphere, one for the southern hemisphere.
- Tree nuts specifically are permanent crops – supply cannot be ramped up quickly, and is expensive to ramp down.
Nut prices are a function of supply and demand. In these markets, the general price trend is influenced most by the supply, where a big crop generally means lower prices, and any fluctuations are reflecting current demand changes.
