László Lengyel, a farmer in Kéthely, Somogy county, has been producing oil pumpkins with his family for the past four years, selling the oil under the full-time farming business. The family has seen increased sales and interest in their product, leading to a price increase in 2021 due to lower yields caused by unfavorable weather conditions. The labor-intensive cultivation and production of the oil, done mainly by hand, contribute to the product's cost. The small-scale producer in Gyenesdiás presses between 60 to 90 liters of pumpkin seed oil annually, selling it at around eight thousand forints per liter. Lengyel believes that the oil has health benefits, including aiding in the preservation of masculinity and preventing prostate problems, and notes that both cold-pressed and hot-pressed versions have their advantages in taste and yield. Hungary, especially the Great Plain and Northern Hungary, and neighboring Austria are significant markets for the pumpkin seed oil produced in Transdanubia.
