Weekly Review:

Domestic flaxseed prices tended to stabilize this week. On the supply side, current flaxseed inventory at domestic ports is relatively low, resulting in tight supply. On the demand side, the operating rate of Chinese flaxseed oil mills is currently low, and market demand is not large, with replenishment mainly done on an as-needed basis. International flaxseed prices rose slightly overall. In the southern Black Sea region of Russia, flaxseed was quoted at 34,100 rubles/ton, stable; in the Novosibirsk region of central Russia, it was quoted at 29,000 rubles/ton, down 4,000 rubles/ton; and in Kazakhstan, flaxseed CNF at the Yamaguchi/Gos border crossing was quoted at $495-515/ton, up, contributing to the overall flaxseed market.

Flaxseed prices are expected to remain stable in the short term (January-February). Based on last week's voting results, market confidence in flaxseed is weak, but domestic and international prices have stopped falling and rebounded. Traders are strongly inclined to maintain prices, supporting the flaxseed market. However, if sales are slow and inventory pressure is high, prices may continue to be lowered.

Weekly Review:

Flaxseed oil prices continued to decline this week. Low flaxseed raw material prices, coupled with weak domestic prices for the three major oils, dragged down flaxseed oil market prices. Currently, the operating rate of flaxseed oil mills in China is not high, resulting in a tight supply of flaxseed oil in the market. However, the demand for flaxseed oil is declining, which is a negative factor for the flaxseed oil market. With many negative factors affecting the oil industry, flaxseed oil prices may continue to fall.
