MARKETS:
It is likely that the sunflower crop will be smaller than the October USDA yield estimate due to the harvest delays witnessed throughout the production region for both oils and confections. There continues to be storage issues in the country which may lead to a good deal of sunflower looking for a commercial home during what may be a short harvest window. Oil World continues to point to oil as the stronger component of the soybean complex going into the new year. That, of course, is supportive of high oil content seeds like sunflower. Most analysts point to stronger sunflower markets going into spring. The international sunflower oil market should be supportive as well. Total world sunflower production will be down by 10 percent this year according to Oil World. Sunoil prices have been moving higher in Rotterdam and projections are that there will be greater segregation in prices between sun, canola and soybean oils.
