# Sunflower oil falls before Abu Dhabi Black Sea talks

> Crude sunflower oil for January-March delivery fell about 3% on the week after a Russia, Ukraine and US meeting was confirmed for Abu Dhabi on 10-11 November. Ukraine and Russia's sunflower oil output and exports in July-September were sharply below year-earlier levels because of the Black Sea escalation.

## Why it matters

Market hopes for Black Sea shipping safety pressured vegetable oil prices, but weak regional supply means prices could rebound if the talks fail to produce a lasting agreement. Palm and rapeseed oil also eased, adding to the bearish tone across the complex.
