The EU Commission estimates 2023 EU sunflower seed output at about 10.9 million tonnes, up nearly 18% and a record, driven by higher yields in Romania and Hungary. Romania's crop is seen at 3.3 million tonnes, while France and Germany are expected to decline.
A record EU crop adds supply that can offset reduced Ukrainian exports, easing sunflower meal and oil price pressure over the coming season.
