> New crop oil sunflower prices at crush plants rose 5 to 10 cents per hundredweight in a week, to $17.45 to $18.45 for NuSun. Oil premiums on content above 40% could lift a contract with 45% oil to about $20.51. Soybean oil and palm oil prices have been weak, while a small 2017 US sunflower crop supports seed values.
