Ukraine: Oilseeds and Products Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   UP2025-0008
Post forecasts Ukrainian farmers will maintain similar areas under oilseed production for marketing year (MY) 2025/26 as compared to the previous MY; however, Post forecasts the split among individual oilseeds will differ. Smaller areas for rapeseed, due to unfavorable planting conditions, and sunflower, due to crop rotations and seed availability, will be compensated by increasing soybean acreage. Post expects higher soybean crush as the result of excess crush capacity and lack of sunflower seeds. The EU will remain the primary market for Ukrainian oilseeds, oils, and meals.
