Kirbic explains:
“Our 2022 campaign has ended as of September 30. However, our producers here can notify the second crop or the late planted crop to the cooperatives they are affiliated with and deliver them right now. We have purchased approximately 310 thousand tons of products in 48 cooperatives. Nearly 60 percent of these products are paid for. The oil average is around 45 this year. Some of our cooperatives are higher and some are lower. However, higher oil rates have occurred compared to last year. This is important both for our producers and for the country’s economy. Even a one-point difference can lead to a serious production Hopefully, with the newly developed seeds and planting dates in the coming years, these oil rates will be increased even more.
Capacity increased by 50 percent
We have increased the capacity of our association in our factory in Tekirdağ. We have increased our capacity close to 50 percent. In times when it is not enough, we make outsourced, crude oil production in some factories, refine it and offer it to the service of the consumer. Our production amount is increasing every year. Our short-term target is 200 thousand tons of refined oil. We got too close to him. We aim to produce and exceed this in the coming years.”
