European Union: Oilseeds and Products Update

Post raises its EU oilseed area planted forecast by 2 percent for MY 2026/27 from its Spring report. MY 2026/27 production is lowered after heat and drought cut yields across western and central Europe. Imports are revised up to help meet unsupplied demand, while favorable crush margins and vegetable oil demand are expected to slightly raise crush and meal production from Post's April report.
