An expert from the FoodNet working group of the National Technology Initiative, Mikhail Charny, has warned of a potential decrease in the olive harvest in Europe due to abnormal heat and drought, which could lead to a global olive oil production decline of 11% in the 2022-2023 agricultural year. This situation is expected to result in a market shortage and an increase in demand for sunflower oil, particularly from Russia, as other oilseeds are also affected by the drought.

"This means that the market will recover much more ...
