In 2023, Hungary led European rapeseed exports at 24.22 thousand metric tons, maintaining a stable share alongside Lithuania and Latvia. Notable exporters include Poland, Bulgaria, and Romania. Smaller contributors were Slovakia, Estonia, and Croatia. Ireland, Luxembourg, Greece, Italy, and Slovenia contributed minimally. Stability characterized the entire region with no change in export volumes from 2022 to 2023.
Future trends to watch:
- Increasing global demand for sustainable oils may enhance export opportunities.
- Climate change could impact crop yields, influencing export capacities.
- Trade relationships post-Brexit may shift trade patterns, particularly affecting Ireland and key Western European economies.
