As of September 18, Ukraine had harvested only 26.7% of its sunflower area, with yields at 1.76 t/ha against 2.01 t/ha a year earlier. Sunflower seed demand prices remain at 26,500-27,500 UAH/t, but some processors have cut prices as supply rises.
Sunflower meal demand prices dropped $10-20/t to $205-210/t delivered to port.
Expected Argentine supply and slower Ukrainian sales are pulling sunflower meal and oil prices lower. Buyers face softer offers despite high seed costs.
