Russia set its August sunflower oil export duty at 7,748 rubles per tonne, up from 3,294 in July, based on an indicative price of $1,298/t. The sunflower meal export duty for August was set at 312.4 rubles per tonne.
The increase reflects logistics disruptions in the sector.
A sharply higher Russian export duty on sunflower oil tightens export availability and supports sunflower oil and meal prices in import markets.
