Global Sunflower Seeds Market Driving Factors and Challenges
Drivers: The growing demand for foods that are ready to eat and convenience is driving the global market for sunflower seeds. Improved seed varieties are driving the sunflower seed industry because they increase sunflower seed output and snack business potential. The need for a broad range of sunflower seed flavors is rising due to the growing number of supermarkets and other retail establishments across the globe. Manufacturers emphasize how easily accessible healthy products are. The availability of sunflower seeds as a rich source of fiber has led to a large growth in the global demand for animal feed products from cattle.
Challenges: The stringent implementation of food safety rules is a key obstacle limiting the sunflower seed industry. As the world's awareness of foodborne illnesses and contamination concerns has grown, regulatory authorities have responded by enforcing stronger laws to ensure the safety of food products ingested by the general population. Because of these stringent regulations, the sunflower seed industry faces many difficulties. Additionally, Due to the high saturated fat content of sunflower seeds, which might cause unintended weight gain, the global market for sunflower seeds is predicted to increase more slowly during the course of the season. Given that sunflower seeds are an oil-intensive plant, the market's expansion is hampered by issues with seed retention and energy efficiency during storage.
Impact of COVID-19 on Global Sunflower Seeds Market
Sunflower oils are among the healthiest edible oils, and in spite of the COVID-19 pandemic, demand for them has grown. There has been a movement toward healthy eating in global consumption. As a result, both the amount of land used for sunflower farming and the price of seed was raised. In the past few years, the market for sowing seeds, or sunflower seeds, has expanded incredibly rapidly. The expansion of the market is being hindered by sunflower's oilseed status, which makes it extremely difficult to maintain seed viability and vigor during storage.
