Market Overview
Sunflower (Helianthus) is a North and Central American native crop that is widely farmed for its seeds, blooms, and oil production. The oil extracted from the seeds is widely utilised in the culinary, energy, and chemical sectors across the world. However, one of the reasons driving market development is its widespread use in the food industry. According to a study published in Oil seeds & Fats Crops and Lipids (OCL) 2024, sunflower seed oil is the world's fourth most consumed vegetable oil. In 2018, Ukraine and Russia accounted for 53% of global sunflower oil production. In 2018, the world production of sunflower oil was 18 million tonnes, with Ukraine and Russia accounting for 53% of the global total.

Because of the scarcity, several businesses are changing their recipes to include rapeseed oil in order to keep their products on the market.
