A North Dakota trade delegation secured
a deal in October to sell 5,000 metric tons
of peas to Cuba, with a verbal agreement
for an additional 20,000 metric tons. A
contract was completed last week for about
10,000 metric tons to be shipped early next
year, the North Dakota Dry Pea and Lentil
Association said.
North Dakota produces about 123,000 metric
tons of dry edible peas annually.
