The domestic pepper market in October 2021 experienced two price increases in a row due to exporters consolidating orders and reduced production in major countries like Vietnam, Brazil, and Indonesia due to climate change. Meanwhile, Thailand's sugar production is expected to rise by 39% to 10.5 million tons, and India's production is predicted to increase to 31.5 million tons due to favorable weather conditions. Lastly, cocoa futures for December 2021 closed up by 0.4% to 2,726 USD/ton, approaching a 10-month peak, with dealers looking forward to the release of third-quarter milling data to determine full-year expectations.
