Ukrainian sunflower oil exports reached a record 5.84 million tonnes in MY2016/17, well above the prior season's 4.5 million. Analysts estimate Ukraine's 2016 sunflower seed crop was 1.2-1.4 million tonnes above official figures, and soybean exports reached 514k tonnes from April to August.
Strong sunoil export demand and a larger-than-reported crop support sunflower oil and meal prices, though the record exports also draw down stocks.
After 224 past bullish trade events, Soybean Oil moved a median +0.4% over 5 sessions (54% higher; middle half -1.5% to +2.1%), and -0.5% over 20.
