  • Can Argentina become a competitive sunflower oil supplier?
  • Argentina’s Sunflower Oil production has great potential for high-value exports, so the country has increased its harvested area for MY 2022/2023, raising the question of whether Argentina can become a competitive Sunseed Oil supplier against Russia and Ukraine, the leading Sunflower Oil exporters. Sunflower Oil Supply was very tight in 2022.‌
  • Why is sunflower oil so popular in Argentina?
  • This is due to the fact that a high level of stocks remained available for processing during the current year because of the low volume industrialized during the previous crop. Argentina is a major player in the world market of sunflower oil, positioning itself as the 4th biggest producer and the 4th main exporter.‌
  • How many sunflower seeds does Argentina crush?
  • Argentina crushes an average of 3.17 Mmt of Sunflower seeds, including 1.35 Mmt of Sunflower Meal and Sunflower Oil each. Since the start of the war in Ukraine in late February 2022, Russia and Ukraine – The world’s leading exporters of Sunflower Oil in MY 2021/2022 – have limited their exports through quotas in 2022.‌
  • Which country exports the most sunflower oil in the world?
  • Argentina is a major player in the world market of sunflower oil, positioning itself as the 4th biggest producer and the 4th main exporter. Besides, for crop season 2020/21, its share in the world trade might be increased, representing 5.4% of total exports, above the 4.2% reached on crop season 2019/20.‌
  • What is the outlook for sunflower oil exports?
  • Meanwhile, sunflower seed production is forecast at 4 MMT, with strong processing and export activity expected, bolstered by competitive international prices. Sunflower oil exports are anticipated to reach 900,000 metric tons, marking an increase from the previous year.‌
  • How much sunflower does Argentina produce a year?
  • Argentina’s Sunflower production averages 3.52 Mmt yearly. While domestic consumption is 3.4 Mmt, of which 3.14 Mmt (~92%) is crushed to produce 1.35 Mmt of Sunflower Oil and Sunflower Meal each. In MY 2021/2022, Sunflower Production decreased by 0.1 Mmt YoY, as the harvested area decreased by 70 kha.
