Factors Affecting Dry Bean Prices

A variety of factors influence dry bean prices in Canada, including international demand and supply, domestic production costs, government policies and the strength of the Canadian dollar.

Dry beans are a major export product for Canada, with over half of production shipped to international markets. International demand is a significant driver of price for Canadian growers.

Canadian production costs have been rising in recent years due to higher input costs, such as seed, fertilizers and labour. These increases have been partially offset by productivity gains from new technology and better management practices.

The Government of Canada has a number of programs and policies that support the dry bean industry, including trade agreements, research initiatives and farm income support programs. These programs provide stability and certainty for producers amidst volatile market conditions.

The value of the Canadian dollar is another important factor influencing dry bean prices in Canada. A weak Canadian dollar makes the exports more competitive on world markets and often leads to higher prices for farmers.
