India’s soymeal exports are set to hit a 26-year low in the 2014-15 year ending March as easing of sanctions against Iran has allowed the key buyer to opt for cheaper South American supplies, industry officials said.
According to the country’s biggest soybean processor Ruchi Soya Industries Ltd, India’s 2014-15 soymeal exports could drop to 800,000 tonnes, which is the lowest since 1988-89. Since Soymeal from India costs 5-10% more than supplies from Argentina and Brazil, top buyers of Indian soymeal such as Iran and Japan are turning away.
India exported 140,400 tonnes of soymeal to Iran over April to December last year, against record shipments of 1.23 million tonnes in 2013-14.
