Thanks for this. An interesting read. Price discovery for lentils with no futures market and and price indications coming from markets in the third world make for an challenging project. It is encouraging to have markets for yellow peas in north America in the fractionation business and not totally feed or the off shore business. I would hope lentils goes this way at some point too. As we havent seen much of a run in red lentils since the early fall I too would hope to see some price increase. Normally I expect to see an increase after the fall harvest run and after buyers got in all the production contract stuff before prices go up. IMO reds have to compete with yellow peas and reds have sure been quite. When I see most all other lentil types in the high fifties and up , I kinda figure there should be more upside on the reds. I have never tracked the price spreads between say reds and estons ? It must be at least 10 - 12 cents these days. Pretty wide. For me 55 cents is a pretty good target for what we didn't move off the combine.

Black Swan event?

Based on your chart and analysis, overall what is your prediction for red lentil prices. Obviously nothing is certain, but are you more inclined to say we are going to see better prices, same prices, or worse prices? Today's price of $.45 isn't terrible but higher is better. With all the rain in Aussie, I wonder what quality looks like there?
