Sunflower

Sunflower has generally been farmed on small scale for us given the limited range of off-takers who primarily use it for oil production. Some off-takers like Mukwano Industries offer a minimum price guarantee for supply of grains from their hybrid seeds. From our farms we produce an average of 1,000 tons of sunflower per annum and purchase an additional 2,000 tons from out-growers in Masindi and Oyam Districts. The average price for sunflower in the past 5 years is 850 Uganda Shillings per Kilo
