Guar Seed Guar Gum Daily Market Intelligence Report February, 2026
Market Status: Post-Session Analysis
Reporting Agency: Guar Gum Cultivation Network
1. Executive Summary: The "Guar seed and guar gum Market Pulse"
The Guar complex on February 11, 2026, faced a bearish correction, with prices retreating from the previous week's highs. Despite a marginal recovery in crude oil prices today, the heavy buildup of US crude inventories and sluggish export demand have dampened the sentiment in both the NCDEX futures and Rajasthan's physical markets.
Today’s Snapshot: Guar Seed (NCDEX Feb-26) settled lower at ₹5,471/quintal (-0.18%). Guar Gum (NCDEX Feb-26) showed a deeper correction, closing near ₹10,045/quintal, a significant drop from January peaks.
The Delta: The primary driver for today's weakness is a "supply-demand mismatch." While Mandi arrivals have slowed seasonally, a 14% month-on-month decline in December-January exports has left processors with ample stocks, reducing their immediate buying appetite.
Sentiment Score: Bearish (70%) for the 7-day outlook as the market searches for a bottom near the ₹5,400 (Seed) and ₹10,000 (Gum) psychological support levels.

4. The "Crude-Guar" Nexus (Fundamental Focus)
The North American shale sector is currently sending mixed signals to the hydrocolloid market.
Crude Oil Status: WTI Crude is trading at $64.54/bbl. While prices rose 0.9% today due to US-Iran tensions, the market is overshadowed by a massive +13.4 million barrel build in US inventories (API report), which traditionally signals a cooling in fracking activity.
Rig Count Impact: The Baker Hughes Rig Count rose by 5 rigs to 551 last week. While this is a leading indicator for future demand, the "shadow fleet" sanctions on Iran are currently the bigger geopolitical driver, causing volatility that prevents long-term hedging by Guar Gum importers.
5. Strategic Risk Matrix
- For Exporters: Critical Risk. Export volumes to the US and Russia dropped sharply in Q4 2025. With Russia remaining a key destination, geopolitical shifts are more impactful than fundamental crop size.
- For Processors: Operational Risk. With Guar Gum futures sliding, processors face negative crush margins if they procure seed at Mandi rates above ₹5,500.
- For Traders: Neutral. Look for a consolidation phase. Avoid fresh longs until Guar Seed clears and sustains above ₹5,650.
