The speculations of a rise in the price of sunflower oil in the coming months due to the poor harvest in the country will not come to pass, Vladimir Ivanov, chairman of the Commodity Exchange and Wholesale Markets State Commission said for the BNR. The European market is going to make up for any possible shortages, and even if there is a price rise it is not going to exceed 10%, experts say. There will be no significant rise in the price of sunflower oil as sunflower producers and processors have warned. The European and the world markets are balanced and prices have remained unchanged for over 6 months, Vladimir Ivanov said further, and added he expected no abrupt changes. “When there is less national production that is not a good thing. But the market does not tolerate any void. Naturally, we shall compensate for the high domestic price with the import price,” Vladimir Ivanov explained.
