# Global shortage of sunflower, rapeseed oils to lead to more EU demand of CPO from Malaysia, Indonesia 12.04.2022 - UkrAgroConsult

> The shortage of sunflower and rapeseed oils, where Russia and Ukraine supply nearly 75% of global exports, may push the EU to buy more palm oil from Malaysia and Indonesia. Analysts noted that low Malaysian output may limit its ability to meet the extra demand. Closed Ukrainian crushing plants and ports have disrupted sunflower oil and meal flows.
