How stable is this supply base?
Three separate questions, answered in order: is the product fresh, is the market busy, and can the sellers be trusted.
Is there much new product?
Oil Seeds gained 21 new listings in the last 30 days, more than double the 3 listings from the previous month. The catalog is growing rapidly, so a buyer sees a much larger volume of recent offers compared to last month. Compare the listing dates when evaluating offers that are otherwise similar.
Is the market busy?
Only 1 of the 43 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, so the pool is mostly made up of long-standing sellers. Buyers meet familiar names with established listing histories, which makes it easier to assess consistency in supply. The small number of new suppliers limits the range of options for a first-time buyer. Review each supplier's history before reaching out to a new one.

Methodology
How the numbers on this page are produced, and what they do not cover.
Every figure comes from Oil Seeds listings, supplier quotes and buyer requests posted on Freshdi in the 365 days to 7 November 2026 - 104 active listings, 13 buyer requests, 13 source documents, and 75 supply observations from the last 90 days. External export benchmarks are cited separately and never mixed into Freshdi figures.
Price and MOQ ranges are the interquartile range - the middle half of quotes, a quarter below and a quarter above - with the median reported alongside. A Oil Seeds type is priced only once it holds at least 5% of supply price quotes and 3 priced listings with a real range; below that it is not listed. Buyer prices are compared only once there are at least 5 of them.
All prices are FOB, in USD per metric ton; quotes on other Incoterms are converted to a FOB equivalent. Freshdi does not hold a CIF price series for Oil Seeds, so no landed-cost comparison is possible from this data.
Product freshness counts listings created or updated. Supplier activity counts sellers by their last update. The two are different measurements and will not agree.
Freshdi reprocesses market data every hour, with one snapshot a day for trends. This page's figures, certification coverage included, refresh every 14 days on a rolling 365-day window.

|---|---|---|
| Incoterm and place | Every quotation names the same Incoterm and port or place. | Prices on FOB and on CIF differ by the freight and the insurance. |
| Specification | The grade, size or composition quoted matches the one asked for. | A lower grade can hide behind a lower price. |
| Quantity and MOQ | The price is for the quantity ordered, above the minimum order. | Unit prices change with the order size. |
| Packaging | Packing type, size and labelling are stated and the same. | Custom packing adds cost. |
| Payment term | The payment term and the deposit asked. | It moves the risk between buyer and seller. |
| Lead time | The production and shipping time to the destination. | A late shipment can cost more than a higher price. |
| Documents | The certificates and export documents included. | Missing papers can block customs. |
| Validity | How long the quoted price holds. | Quotations are often valid for a limited time only. |
Ask every counterpart to quote on the same basis: only then does the lower price win.
