In Ukraine, after a long period of stability, since mid-June the prices for Sunflower seeds resumed.
The development of this situation was facilitated by a decrease in procurement activity by oil processing plants due to the availability of raw material stocks for further processing. Additional pressure on prices is exerted by large stocks of sunflower seeds in the country, especially against the background of the decline in processing, as well as the step-down price trend in the export market of unrefined sunflower oil
Demand for sunflower seeds fell by €35-65/ton in the specified period and was mostly in the range of €23-338/ton as of June 467.
