Pessimism about the state of the US economy is increasing on American stock exchanges, which has forced traders to actively book profits after recent growth.

According to the European Commission, in 2025, the EU countries are expected to produce about 8.5 million tons of sunflower seeds, which is 3% more than in the unsuccessful 2024. The increase in yield has partially offset a slight decrease in sown areas, but this is still the third lowest harvest in the last 10 years.   The average yield is forecast at 18.0 c/ha, well below the long-term average of 20.1 c/ha. In 2024, it was 17.4 c/ha. The area under sunflower in the EU decreased by...

According to preliminary estimates by distributors, India reduced imports of edible oils in October by 20.7% compared to September to 1.27 million tons, in particular palm oil - to a 5-month minimum of 600 thousand tons. The reduction in imports, due to significant stocks and a drop in consumer demand, is increasing pressure on spot prices for palm oil.   In 2024/25 MY, palm oil imports into India fell to a 5-year low as buyers switched to cheaper soybean oil.   December...

In Ukraine, active harvesting of late crops continues in difficult conditions (with high humidity and prolonged rainfall), so farmers are practically not engaged in sales and deliveries of grain for export, which limits supply at ports. Because of this, traders are forced to raise purchase prices to attract volumes.   Over the week, export demand prices for feed barley in Ukraine increased by another 50-100 UAH/t to 10,400-10,500 UAH/t or $217-220/t with delivery to Black Sea ports...
