Ukraine increased flaxseed production

According to data of ÀPÊ-Inform Agency, in the season 2009/10, Ukraine will increase production volumes of oil flax.

In the current season, the sowing areas of the oilseed for the harvest-2009 totaled 49 thsd ha, up 60 % compared to the previous season (19.3 thsd ha).

The high demand for the oilseed in the last season from both the domestic market and export consumers became the main reason of the growth of flaxseed production.

In the current season, the EU banned imports of several varieties of Canadian flaxseed due to contradiction to the European requirements to genetically modified products, that is why, the demand for Ukrainian flaxseed will stay rather high.

You can meet with main exporters of flaxseed from Ukraine, during the eighth international conference “Fat-and-oil industry - 2009”, taking place on November 25-27, 2009, in Truskavets. You can become acquainted with the conference program, conditions of participation, and fill in the application form at the web-site of our agency.
