TRANSCRIPT
Ukraine's biggest sunflower crusher stops. Kernel has halted all eight of its oil extraction plants after Russian drone attacks damaged facilities.
About 9% of world sunflower oil. That is Kernel's approximate share of global sunflower oil production and exports.
Seed buying is suspended too. Kernel has stopped all seed purchases. It is still shipping stock it already holds.
Meal comes from the same crush. When oil plants stop, sunflower meal output stops with them. Less crushing means less meal for feed buyers.
What to watch now. Sunflower meal and oil supply, and whether competing vegetable oils and protein meals feel the pull. Track the prices on Feedsoft.
