Turkish hazelnut prices remained weak even as the state buyer TMO had purchased more than 190,000 tonnes of in-shell nuts and could reach about 240,000 tonnes by year-end. Heavy rain, drying difficulties and pest pressure reduced kernel yields and quality, while export demand remained below past peaks.
State purchases remove supply from the open market, and lower merchantable quality could tighten availability of premium kernels later in the season. Weak export demand and current low prices are countervailing factors; no direct feed-commodity price impact is indicated.
