Sunflower Market in Bulgaria: Cautious Optimism and Stable Prices at the Start of the Season
As of late May 2026, the outlook for Bulgaria's sunflower harvest is cautiously optimistic, with final yields heavily dependent on upcoming weather conditions. Across the EU, the European Commission projects a strong season, with production forecasted to reach approximately 9.6 million tonnes—the highest level in three years. Bulgaria, alongside Romania, France, Hungary, Spain, and Greece, is expected to see an increase in production volume. However, the market remains vulnerable to weather risks and strong competition from Ukraine and Romania. With their extensive capacity for oil and hulled seeds, Bulgaria's domestic processors continue to drive robust demand for raw materials. This sustains firm price expectations among farmers. Currently, prices for black sunflower seeds in Bulgaria remain stable. Preliminary indicators for the new harvest align with current market levels, with no significant downward trend in sight. Farmers remain cautious, holding out for better prices while balancing summer weather risks against consistent demand from local buyers.

The apricot harvest is currently in full swing, and prices remain exceptionally high, consequently driving up market prices for both dried and frozen apricots.
