  • Is sunflower a export oriented business in Argentina?
  • In Argentina, sunflower is an export-oriented business; sunflower products are primarily shipped as oil and flour, and to a lesser extent seed is also exported. Given that 60% of the oil produced is exported in a normal season and that flour has a low relative value, over 80% of sunflower value is explained by the international value of its oil.
  • Why is sunflower oil so popular in Argentina?
  • This is due to the fact that a high level of stocks remained available for processing during the current year because of the low volume industrialized during the previous crop. Argentina is a major player in the world market of sunflower oil, positioning itself as the 4th biggest producer and the 4th main exporter.
  • How much sunflower is produced in Argentina?
  • Argentina¡¯s total sunflower production in grain, meal, and oil has been around 10% of global sunflower production for the business years 2010 to 2013. In spite of a strong domestic consumption (12.3 liters/inhabitant), global trade fluctuates around 14% in meal, 16.2% in oil, and a low 4.4% in untransformed sunflower seed ( USDA, 2013 ).
  • Why did Argentina lose its role as a sunflower oil exporter?
  • Since then, it had kept its area between 1.8 million and 2.3 million ha, according to the crop competitiveness compared to soybean. During this period, economic reforms in countries of the former Soviet Union resulted in Argentina finally losing its leading role as sunflower oil exporter at the hands of the Ukraine and the Russian Federation.
  • Which country exports the most sunflower oil in the world?
  • Argentina is a major player in the world market of sunflower oil, positioning itself as the 4th biggest producer and the 4th main exporter. Besides, for crop season 2020/21, its share in the world trade might be increased, representing 5.4% of total exports, above the 4.2% reached on crop season 2019/20.
  • Who exports sunflower oil in Buenos Aires?
  • The main exporting firms of sunflower oil were Cargill, Oleaginosa Moreno, Nidera, Vicentín, Molinos Río de la Plata and Oleaginosa Oeste. The six firms represent over 90% of the total volume exported. The most important shipping ports are Necochea and Bahia Blanca, in the province of Buenos Aires followed by San Lorenzo/San Martín, in Santa Fe. .
