China's sunflower kernel exports are on track to reach about 600,000 tonnes this year, with Q4 peak shipping season and strong demand from snack and bakery makers.

Higher volumes at lower margins signal that Black Sea logistics disruption is weighing on regional sunflower seed bids and pushing Ukrainian kernels into markets at low prices, which pressures mid-range Chinese quotations.
