> EU linseed imports reached 182 thousand tons from July to October in the 2026/27 season, up 47.9% from a year earlier, per European Commission data cited by UkrAgroConsult. Kazakhstan supplied about 55% of imports, Canada's shipments rose 3.7 times, and Ukraine's rose 49.6%, while Russian supplies fell 95.9% after tariffs. Experts flag Russian rail restrictions to Baltic ports, seasonal Baltic port limits, and higher Polish road freight costs as risks.
