2024 white bean production

1 ARGENTINA This year, Argentina’s crop of white beans was classified as a ‘disaster’ by the Argentine Chamber of Pulses. Of the 170 thousand hectares planted, 85 thousand tonnes were harvested - 30% of normal levels. Yields were highly inconsistent and quality was a concern, generally falling below European standards. Argentina, which has been losing market share in Europe due to successive years of unfavorable weather and subsequent poor harvests, will have very few beans to sell this marketing year, leaving room for new player Egypt to become a more significant supplier in a global context that is seeing tight supplies in general.
