USDA: forecast for the Black Sea oilseed crop raised by 0.3 MMT at the expense of Ukraine

12 November, 2019 at 12:11

In the November report, the USDA raised its estimate for the Black Sea oilseed crop in the 2019/20 season to 45.403 MMT (+0.3 MMT): sunflower seed – 30.95 MMT, soybeans – 8.105 MMT, rapeseed – 6.348 MMT.

The increase is accounted for by upward adjustments to the forecasts for Ukrainian production of rapeseed (3.3 MMT, or up 0.2 MMT) and soybeans (3.7 MMT, or up 0.1 MMT).
