SeaVisionBurma Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 I have a feeling this will be an unsung hero in improving Myanmar's economy - it is a commodity that is in high demand and Myanmar could become a recognised exporter. I often hear from folks who want to find out about beans & pulses in Myanmar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DagonKhan Posted August 29, 2014 Author Share Posted August 29, 2014 It's a big one for sure. Normally has a detrimental affect on exchange rates when the harvest comes in as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah, completely forgot about that. In the old days it was rather amusing and a little odd being told the Kyat rate was up/down/sideways compared to the previous week because of a bean harvest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
