This decline in sunflower oil exports caused palm oil, As demand for soybean oil and rapeseed oil increased, these international prices also surged. ' Ukraine is known as the world's largest producer of sunflower oil and safflower oil, accounting for 48% of the world's supply as of 2019. Russia is the second largest source of sunflower oil and safflower oil, accounting for 22% of the world's supply.
An analysis of cereals, which showed a rise in prices next to vegetable oil, said: 'The rise in prices in March 2022 reflects the soaring prices of wheat and coarse-grained cereals, and the conflict disrupts exports from Ukraine and Russia. It is expected that exports from the Black Sea region will be cut off, which will put an additional burden on the supply capacity of wheat, which was already in a tight situation. '
