Weekly Review:

Flaxseed prices remained stable this week, with average transactions and first-class goods reluctant to sell. The recent supply and demand of flaxseed is relatively balanced and has not changed much. On the supply side, the port arrival volume is still relatively large, and the supply of flaxseed is sufficient. The arrival volume in March reached 151,200 tons, which is bearish for the flaxseed market. On the demand side, due to the downstream replenishment on demand, the terminal market is moving slowly, so the demand for flaxseed is weak. CNF in the southern Black Sea region of Russia quoted flaxseed at US$610/ton, and the price performance was stable. The shipping date is May-June. Canadian flaxseed is quoted at US$660-670/ton, and Kazakhstan flaxseed is quoted at US$610-620/ton in Alashankou. In the short term, the international flaxseed market has limited cargo volume, which is good for the international flaxseed market, and the possibility of a drop in flaxseed prices is not high. In the long run, the price of flaxseed at Chinese ports is still bullish.

Weekly Review:

The price of linseed oil remained stable this week. At present, the operating rate of linseed oil factories in China is not high, and the supply of linseed oil is not large, which is good for the linseed oil market. In terms of demand, it is currently in the off-season for linseed oil consumption, and the demand for linseed oil is still not strong, which is bad for the linseed oil market. The prices of domestic soybean oil and rapeseed oil are generally stable and fluctuating. It is expected that the price of linseed oil may continue to remain stable in the short term.

03 Flax cake

Week 17 (April 21-April 25, 2025) This week's flaxseed cake prices are as follows: Zhangjiakou 2800-3400 yuan/ton; Datong 2900-3000 yuan/ton; Shenchi 3000 yuan/ton; Zhongwei 2800-3000 yuan/ton; Shizuishan 3200 yuan/ton; Baotou 2800 yuan/ton; Tianjin 3150 yuan/ton; Nantong 2800 yuan/ton; Xingtai 2900 yuan/ton.

Weekly Review:

The overall price of flaxseed cake remained stable this week. The operating rate of flaxseed oil plants is not high, and the supply has decreased slightly, supporting the flaxseed cake market. As the temperature rises in the later period, the proportion of flaxseed cake as a high-calorie feed raw material in the feed ratio will decrease, and demand will be weak. It is expected that the price of flaxseed cake will be stable and fluctuating in the short term.
