Kyle Holland, a senior analyst at Mintec, predicted at the IA "APK-Inform" conference that the global supply of oilseeds, including production and initial balances, will decrease to 60.55 million tons in 2024/25 from the current season's 61.57 million tons. The European Union is expected to see a rise in sunflower harvest, while Ukraine and Russia, the world's leading sunflower producers, will see a reduction in their gross harvest. Additionally, Holland anticipates a rise in sunflower seed and sunflower oil prices starting in September 2023.
