The growing area of the high oleic acid sunflower can increase by one million hectares worldwide
The volume of the high oleic acid sunflower can continue to grow in Hungary. The demand for the crop is dramatically increasing worldwide – Syngenta’s sector forecast predicts.
Last year, from a 1.2 percent less area, a total of 1.56 million tonnes of sunflower seeds were harvested by the farmers in Hungary. This is 5 percent higher than the best result of the past ten years – according to the data of the Central Statistical Office (KSH). The average yield became 6 percent higher than in 2013 – and became 2.67 tonnes. On nearly 60 percent of the total cultivated area Syngenta hybrids were grown, so the company certainly kept its leading position – Veres Gabriella, the product manager of oilseeds said.
