Chinese Sunflower Kernel: Exports are Sluggish, Domestic Trade is Stable

Dalian: With the Spring Festival approaching, sunflower kernel exporters and producers began to take a holiday. Before the Spring Festival, the orders for the export market were basically completed, and the domestic market proceeded smoothly. Domestic demand increased during the Spring Festival, and bread-grade sunflower kernels were severely hit by imported sunflower kernels, which affected the price in the Chinese market. Domestic trade demand is more significant than export, and prices remain high. Major food factories, wholesale markets and retailers have been on holiday one after another, resulting in no upward momentum in sunflower kernel prices. In terms of exports, sunflower seed kernels are better than pumpkin seed kernels, and exports are stable. Orders in the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Europe increased, while orders in the U.S. market decreased yearly. Traders predict that the price of sunflower seeds will not fall before the Spring Festival. This week, the price of confectionary-grade sunflower kernels FOB Dalian or Tianjin is 1660-1710 US dollars/ton, and the price of baking grade sunflower kernels FOB Tianjin or Dalian is 1610-1650 US dollars/ton. The domestic market dominates, and rising demand supports prices. Please continue to pay attention to the price changes in the Chinese market.
