Mumbai: The optimistic undertone in castor seed futures is hoped to continue as the arrivals likely to shrink further in the coming days. Castor seed is sown in July and August and harvested in January. The inflow into Gujarat spot markets has fell to 30,000 bags (of 75 kg each) during the week from 80,000 bags. Prices of castor seed in the spot markets are on the increase amidst strong export demand and are quoted at about Rs 570 for a 20 kg bag. Export price of castor seed oil meal is quoted at $150 a tonne. India is one of largest exporters of castor seed and its derivatives like oil and oil meal. The weakness in barley futures is hoped to remain in the short term. The steady decline in open interest and low volumes amidst softening prices indicate that the market is in overbought position.
