# Prices for new crop sunflowers are falling as harvest speeds up

> Harvest of new-crop sunflowers has started in southern Ukraine after dry, hot weather. Forecast heat is expected to speed harvesting and raise supply, pushing prices seasonally toward 12,000-13,000 hryvnias/t at plant delivery. Blocked Black Sea exports of sunflower oil and meal add pressure.

## Why it matters

Heavier new-crop supply and weak processor demand point to lower sunflower seed and meal prices into autumn, which would ease sunflower meal costs for feed buyers.
