The official oilseed harvest for the 23/24 season is expected to exceed the results of the last season and set a new record, with preliminary results already showing increases in sunflower and soybean production. However, weather problems are expected to prevent a complete cleanup of the harvest in the 2023 calendar year, with sunflower and soybean harvests in new regions of the Russian Federation significantly exceeding last year's figures. The Russian Federation continues to increase export volumes of oils and meal, with the potential for new export records in the 23/24 season.
