The price of sunflowers in Ukraine has risen, reaching the same level as at the beginning of the month, with prices of 13,500 - 14,000 hryvnia per ton. Despite a slight increase in the global sunflower harvest, prices have continued to rise due to the need for new oilseed raw materials for processors and increased competition between exporters. Ukrainian agricultural producers are withholding sales of raw materials in anticipation of increased demand and prices after the establishment of sunflower supplies to Bulgaria, which is still in the initial stages and not expected until January.
