Earlier Report Observations
The market volume for sunflower-seed oilcake in Czechia showed considerable fluctuation between 2018 and 2023. After a period of relative stability around 72–84 thousand tonnes, it surged to nearly 100 thousand tonnes in 2023. This peak was driven by a significant rise in imports and a concurrent reduction in exports during that year.
The sharp market expansion in 2023 coincided with a period of tightened global supply. A decline in sunflower oil production in key regions like Ukraine and Argentina reduced raw material availability, while rising sunflower seed prices, driven by geopolitical instability, altered trade flows and cost structures for Czech processors and traders.
In the following years, the market environment continued to be shaped by these global dynamics. The ongoing situation in Ukraine affected supply chains into 2024, with expectations of lower EU-wide sunflower oil production. By 2025, Russia's emergence as the world's leading sunflower oil exporter introduced new trade patterns, and price volatility for oils and their by-products remained a persistent factor.
