market-update No. 61-2022 Bulgarian sunflower seeds new crop

2022-09-21 | Bulgarian exporters cut off their shelling capacity massively, and new crop sunflower production is down
The impact of the Ukrainian war has a striking change in the Bulgarian shelling industry. Lloyds Auditors are reporting from failed unannounced on-site BRC inspections because factories were still closed or shut down. We heard that one of the largest de-huller closed 2 out of 5 factories. Other main processors have not restarted production since they closed it for annual maintenance.
