  • What is sunflower seed processing?
  • Sunflower seed processing focuses on sunflower oil as the most valuable product. It is used as high-value oil in various food applications. The deoiled meal is considered a byproduct and is mostly used as animal feed. In 2011, annual world production of deoiled sunflower meal was at 16 million tons (FAO, 2013).
  • What products are made from sunflower seeds?
  • Sunflowers are used to make oil, meal and confectionary products. Oil and meal are processed from the same sunflower seed varieties. The seed variety used foe confectionary products has a lower percentage of oil.
  • What is the export/production ratio of sunflower?
  • If we compare the export/production ratio of the main products involved in the vegetable oils and proteins markets, we see that sunflower is traded mainly after processing: 55% of the oil volumes were exported in 2018/19, 38% of the meals, and only 5% of the harvested seeds.
  • What is the evolution of sunflower seed production & acreage?
  • Evolution of sunflower seed world production (Million Tons, yellow bars) and acreage (Million ha, red bars) 1976-2018 (Source: Oil World, 2019). Evolution of oilseeds production 1975-2019. Evolution of the relative share of 10 oilseeds in Global production (Source: Oil World, 2019). Localisation of the sunflower production.
  • Why is sunflower production important in Tanzania?
  • In Tanzania, sunflower production is critical as it is one of the most important vegetable oils with high value and importance in the international market . ... Sunflower is a globally significant crop, driven by the increasing demand for edible oil.
  • How do high prices affect the production of sunflower seeds?
  • Also higher plantings (encouraged by high prices) have an impact on larger harvest (or improved output). The additional supplies of sunflower seed resulted in an increase in seed crushing activity (to produce oil and meal) to above or near historic highs in each of these countries.
