The future of sunflower production in South Africa
FERDI MEYER and GERHARD VAN DER BURGH, both from the Bureau for Food and Agricultural Policy. Over the past two decades, the South African sunflower industry has been characterised by volatile production levels with virtually no real growth while domestic demand for oilcake and vegetable oil has increased by approximately 40%.
The production of sunflower seed is concentrated in the Free State and North West provinces which together account for around 80% of the farmland planted to sunflower. Sunflower seed production was almost 681 000 tonnes in 2018/2019 compared to 859 000 tonnes produced during 2017/18. The average yield was 1.32 tonnes/hectare in 2018/19.

The sunflower seed delivered to CEOCO had an oil content of between 46% and 48%. Based on an average sunflower price of R5 887/ton, producers received price premiums of 12% (R706) to 15% (R883) per ton. On top of the improved price, producers who took part in the pilot reported average yields of 2t/ha – significantly higher than the current
