Canadian lentil prices have seen a sharp and unexpected decline in the global market this year. The average price for Canadian lentils is now around $815 per ton, representing a drop of about 25% compared to last year.

This oversupply situation makes it a challenging period for Canadian lentil producers, who may need to explore alternative markets or adjust production strategies.
