The demand for sunflowers from processing plants is decreasing as they prepare for the rape season, leading to a drop in sunflower prices to UAH 19-20 thousand with VAT or $410-430 without VAT, and new harvest prices to UAH 17-18 thousand with VAT or $368-390 without VAT. Prices for sunflower and oil vary by region, with specific rates for DAP Ukraine, Bulgaria, and CIF Bulgaria. Canola prices remain stable, with active European logistics trading for September and October. COCERAL forecasts a decrease in the European rape crop for 2024 to 18.5 million tons, while the profitability of oil crops has been improving since early 2024.
