Dalian: Exporters report that acreage drop will be seen in the new season, leading to hoarding by traders and cyclical price increases. As the hot summer weather is not conducive to selling sunflower kernel products, prices are expected to stabilize or decline slightly in summer. Also, importers mostly avoid summer purchases. Regarding exports, the markets in Europe, Southeast Asia and the United States are dominated by confectionary-grade sunflower kernels. In contrast, bakery-grade sunflower kernels are not very competitive, and orders from Europe and the Middle East have decreased. This week, the price of confectionary-grade sunflower kernels FOB Dalian or Tianjin is 1.770-1.810 US dollars/ton, and the cost of bakery-grade sunflower kernels FOB Tianjin or Dalian is 1.700-1.740 US dollars/ton. Please continue to pay attention to the price changes in the Chinese market.
