Earlier Report Observations

The market volume for sunflower, safflower or cottonseed oil in Azerbaijan showed significant variability from 2018 to 2023. It grew to a high of 92 268 tonnes in 2019, then contracted to 76 167 tonnes in 2020. The market partially recovered in the following years, reaching 80 289 tonnes by 2023.

This movement was shaped by trends in domestic production, imports, and exports. Local production gradually declined from 38 286 tonnes in 2019 to 30 030 tonnes in 2023. Imports, which had peaked at 61 519 tonnes in 2019, fell in the early 2020s before rising sharply again to 66 859 tonnes in 2024. Exports decreased steadily until 2023, then rebounded in 2024 and 2025.

Trade data for 2024 and 2025 underscores the market's structure, with a significant portion of imports sourced from Russia. This reliance on Russian supplies remained evident in 2025, with imports at 60 110 tonnes and exports rising to 10 372 tonnes.
