🥜 Global Peanut Market Trends – June 2025 Sourcing Outlook for B2B Buyers

Still Waters, Strategic Moves: Navigating the Global Peanut Supply Chain


🌍 Global Outlook: Soft Demand, Strong Supply, Smart Decisions

In June 2025, the international peanut trade finds itself in a rare state of quiet. Across all major origins—the United States, Argentina, Brazil, China, and Indiapeanut supply remains abundant, but global demand is subdued.

This isn’t a sign of weakness. It’s a sign of strategic recalibration. Buyers are cautious. Processors are disciplined. Traders are watching for catalysts—weather patterns, freight shifts, policy changes, and seasonal consumption cycles.

For B2B peanut buyers, bulk importers, and origin-focused suppliers, now is the time to listen, assess, and prepare for the months ahead.


🇺🇸 United States: Reliable Crop, Uncertain Pull

America’s peanut sector is steady but subdued. The 2025 crop has been successfully planted, with expanded acreage and healthy early development despite high summer heat.

However, domestic and export demand remain soft. U.S. shellers—many holding higher-priced farmerstock—face tough decisions. Legislation like the pending Farm Bill, and the timing of the July–October forfeiture window, could influence how and when product is released.

Buyers should note: moisture levels are good, and no significant drought threats exist for now. The U.S. remains a stable origin with disciplined sellers and low short-term pressure.


🇦🇷 Argentina: Delays Without Distress

Argentina’s harvest is ongoing and behind schedule, but quality has not been compromised. Despite lower-than-expected yields, expanded acreage ensures that exportable volumes remain strong.

Chinese importers have shown particular interest in cost-effective, lower-grade Argentine peanuts, confirming Argentina’s ability to pivot quickly toward opportunistic demand.

For B2B buyers, this origin remains one of the most flexible and responsive—especially for value-segment or blending strategies.


🇧🇷 Brazil: Quiet Export Growth

Brazil’s peanut and peanut oil exports are rising steadily. Though the market activity may not be headline-grabbing, volume growth is real, and Brazil is strengthening its role as a secondary origin with expanding capacity.

Peanut buyers seeking long-term supply diversification or access to certified processing facilities should monitor Brazil’s trade flows carefully—it’s a market on the rise.


🇨🇳 China: Planting Complete, Buyers Active Behind the Scenes

China offers the most complex mix of market signals this month.

Publicly, the market seems quiet—domestic sales are soft, and exports are uncompetitive due to low international prices and rising freight costs to Europe.

But behind the scenes, Chinese buyers have quietly secured large volumes of lower-priced peanuts from Argentina and Brazil. Many speculate that this is part of a strategic stockpiling effort ahead of peak seasonal demand (e.g. Moon Festival sales).

Meanwhile, China’s own 2025 peanut crop is fully planted, with some regions like Western Shandong expanding acreage. In the northeast, production continues to shift toward EU-spec runner and red-skin types. Rain is needed soon, but early development is acceptable.

China may not be aggressively selling, but it is actively preparing.


🇮🇳 India: Careful Start to Kharif Planting

India is currently planting its Kharif peanut crop, with early signs pointing to slightly reduced acreage. Market uncertainty and monsoon timing are influencing farmer sentiment.

India remains a price-sensitive, high-volume origin that could influence global flows later in the season, depending on how its crop progresses.
