Re. Cumin seeds

Harvesting of new crop has finished  , the crop is big and Syria still  has the lowest source of cumin  price .Heavy demands are coming into Syria ,

price has  increased sharply  although there is plenty of cargo but there is  also pressure from exporters to cover their purchase orders .

Major Roads are less  disturbed by conflicts, but electricity shortage has put  many difficulties, all ports are working fine, and containers are exported smoothly.

The government  regulations of no change, but the volatile  of local currency makes the prices changed .

 

Re. Anise seeds :

The new crop is small and  less than before  ,  as the planted areas  of new crop  are  less than last year ,but no accurate estimation ,it  will be clear in harvesting time in July, the stock are still there in moderate and low level .

​ Market is slow , demands are moderate, prices are still the same .

Re. Nigella seeds  :
