Bulgaria's 2012 rapeseed crop was greatly affected by dry weather.

Consequently rapeseed exports from this country have also declined. Since the beginning of the current season (September-October), according to UkrAgroConsult estimates, Bulgaria exported only 150,000 tonnes of rapeseed that is 60% less than during the same time last year.

EU countries remained the main importers of rapeseed from Bulgaria - their share approximated 94%.
