Feed corn became cheaper by 11 percent compared to the same period last year, in the third week of March it cost HUF 92.3 thousand per ton. The same amount of industrial sunflower seeds cost HUF 189.9 thousand according to the total, the annual price decrease is 28 percent.
According to the March data, wheat and corn are also becoming cheaper worldwide, the AKI pointed out
Experts expect a slowdown in international demand, while Australia could achieve a record wheat harvest. The significant supply has also brought down the price of corn, and the international market for oilseeds is also showing a decline – the institute’s summary states.
