Weekly Review:

This week, the peanut market showed an overall stalemate between supply and demand, with prices stabilizing. Price fluctuations narrowed, generally hovering around 200 yuan/ton this month. Specifically, the prices of Baisha peanuts from Zhumadian, Henan, and mixed peanuts stabilized, while Baisha peanuts from Fuxin, Liaoning, were 2.06% weaker than at the beginning of the month. Regarding oil mills, some mills, such as Luhua, entered the market later this season. As of December 18th, the total amount of peanuts arriving this season was 250,100 tons, a 40.17% decrease compared to the same period last year. Currently, they are mainly purchasing on demand and controlling quality. Good quality peanuts can reach 7900 yuan/ton. Prices are around 1 ton, with weak demand for high-priced goods. Domestic sales are slow, mainly driven by inventory depletion, with some localized restocking at lower prices. Both arrivals and sales are limited across regions, with smaller markets in Central China, East China, and Southwest China purchasing mainly on an as-needed basis. Looking ahead, supply and demand in producing areas are not expected to change significantly. Farmers are reluctant to sell at low prices, and some stockholders in Northeast China are looking to realize profits. Prices are limited in their ability to fall further and lack upward momentum, and may stabilize this month. Attention should be paid to the rate of consumption of goods after large oil mills gradually resume operations before the holiday.

02 Peanut Oil

In week 51 (December 15-19, 2025), the national average price of peanut oil was 15,700 yuan/ton. Reference prices are as follows:

Weekly Review: 

The peanut oil market remained stable this week. Current supply is ample, oil mill inventories are rising, and regional differentiation exists between the Northeast (holding prices and holding back sales) and Henan (oilseed and peanut oil supply is ample). On the demand side, consumption is weak, traders are cautious in accepting goods, and terminal sales are slow. However, the approaching New Year's Day and Spring Festival will drive rigid restocking. In the long term, there is a trend towards high-end and healthier products, with increased penetration of high-oleic acid products.

Overall, short-term ample supply and demand have resulted in insufficient upward pressure on prices. In the long term, the industry will experience structural growth due to consumption upgrades. Going forward, key attention should be paid to the progress of holiday stockpiling, oil mill inventory digestion, and the flow of goods in production areas.
