Pathak mentioned soybean meal costs are aggressive that are supporting exports. He expressed hope that exports may double to 18 lakh tonne within the present oil advertising and marketing yr (October 2020-September 2021). Within the earlier oil advertising and marketing yr, 8.62 lakh tonne was exported.

Survey groups interacted with farmers, mandi officers, merchants, stockiest and processors to evaluate the crop in kharif 2020.
Crushing has been brisk this yr and exports have greater than doubled in comparison with the earlier yr, mentioned Pathak. On account of elevated export demand, the affiliation expects crushing of 95 lakh tonne this yr, in opposition to 82 lakh tonne within the earlier oil yr.
