Ukrainian sunflower oil export prices have increased to $1260 per ton on January 21, 2021, due to both domestic factors and global vegetable oil market trends. The rise in prices is attributed to a decrease in the supply of commercial sunflower seeds and a growing trend in the global market for vegetable oils. Factors contributing to this trend include a strike in Argentina, which has affected the soybean complex, and a potential rise in palm oil prices this season, amid declining global vegetable oil supply. However, the coronavirus pandemic could impact vegetable oil trade by leading to quarantine restrictions and lower demand.
