Spread the news!

Dalian: Exporters reported that the newly added planting area in some production areas is expected to decrease. The hot summer weather is not conducive to the sales and storage of sunflower kernel products, and the price is expected to fall slightly. Domestic food companies reduce their consumption in summer. In terms of exports, the markets of Europe, Southeast Asia and the United States are dominated by confectionary-grade sunflower kernels, but the demand in summer is reduced. However, the competitiveness of bakery-grade sunflower kernels is not strong, and orders from Europe and the Middle East are reduced. This week, the price of confectionary-grade sunflower kernels FOB Dalian or Tianjin is 1.730-1.760 US dollars/ton, and the price of bakery-grade sunflower kernels FOB Tianjin or Dalian is 1.700-1.730 US dollars/ton. Please continue to pay attention to the price changes in the Chinese market.
