High demand for sunflower seeds and processors' willingness to increase prices for large volumes and high oil content contributed to a further price increase in Ukraine against the backdrop of a general decline in the supply of raw materials in the current season and deteriorating quality indicators, reports APK-Inform.
At the beginning of the week, demand prices were quoted from 27,500 UAH/t to 28,800 UAH/t SRT enterprise, however, closer to the end of the reporting period, purchase prices reached 28,000-29,000 UAH/t SRT.
A slight strengthening of prices in the sunflower oil sector also supported sunflower prices.
