Ukrainian sunflower meal exports rose to 349.8 thousand tonnes in October 2016, up from 141.5 thousand in September, and 491.3 thousand for September-October combined. Analysts expect the 2016/17 season to set an export record of at least 4.4 million tonnes, with India taking a growing share.
Strong Ukrainian sunmeal export flows add supply to global protein meal markets, modestly pressuring competing meal prices, while Turkey's shift toward sunseed reflects a duty on sunoil.
