Bulgaria: Oilseeds and Products Update

Following the conclusion of Bulgaria’s MY 2020/21 sunflower harvest in late October, the Ministry of Agriculture (MinAg) reported lower than expected yields and production. Post revises its sunflower production estimate downward to 1.7 million metric tons (MMT). Post also reduces its total MY 2020/21 rapeseed production estimate to 270,000 metric tons (MT) based on final post-harvest data. The fall 2020 planting season for MY 2021/22 rapeseed was delayed due to dry conditions. The rapeseed area planted is forecast down by over 20 percent from MY 2020/21. Although planting challenges may negatively affect the size of the winter rapeseed crop, it may increase the spring crop area in 2021.
