# War changed sharply export structure of oilseed products in Ukraine – APK-Inform

> APK-Inform analyst Svitlana Kyrychok said logistics problems since the war began have hit Ukrainian oilseed prices, demand and exports. Last year Ukraine exported over 80% of its sunflower oil and meal, but since the war sunflower seed has held the leading share at about 38%. Export volumes will depend on port operations, and early grain shipments are seen as a positive sign.

A shift from processed oilseed products toward seed exports reduces Ukrainian meal supply to world feed markets. This keeps sunflower meal prices supported relative to pre-war levels.
