Why should we invest in sunflower oil in Tanzania?

Investment in sunflower oil production locally could therefore provide competition against imported oil. One reason for encouraging the greater production and processing of sunflower oil in Tanzania is thus its potential for import substitution, which could generate income and jobs at home and have a beneficial impact on foreign- exchange outflows.

What is the export/production ratio of sunflower?

If we compare the export/production ratio of the main products involved in the vegetable oils and proteins markets, we see that sunflower is traded mainly after processing: 55% of the oil volumes were exported in 2018/19, 38% of the meals, and only 5% of the harvested seeds.

Is sunflower a good source of protein?

Sunflower is the third oilseed produced in the world, the fourth vegetable oil and third oilseed meal among protein feed sources. In the past decades, the competition has been tough on the very dynamic vegetable oils and oilseed meals markets, respectively driven by palm oil and soybean meal.

Is sunflower oil healthy?

Also it is healthier than other types of oil, for example palm oil and groundnut oil. Sunflower oil is low in saturated fat and high in polyunsaturated fat. Oil seed production in Tanzania mainly focuses on ground nuts (40%), sunflower (36%), sesame (15%), cotton (8%) and palm oil (1%).
