The USDA's February report raised its 2020/21 world sunflower seed estimate slightly to 50.139 million tons. It cut forecasts for world sunflower oil to 19.472 million tons and sunflower meal to 20.93 million tons, both below the prior season.
Lower projected sunflower meal and oil output reduces supply of these oilseed products, which is mildly supportive for meal prices and competing vegetable oil prices.
