For centuries, this beloved flower has held deep cultural significance, influencing poets, writers, and artists across various mediums. The sunflower’s radiant colours and lively presence have made it a symbol of warmth and vitality, leaving a lasting impression on artistic expression.

For over 3,000 years, in addition to its crucial role in the ecosystem, the sunflower has been a significant agricultural crop. Sunflowers are mainly grown for their seeds, which can be used as animal feed or enjoyed as a snack by humans. Additionally, sunflower seeds are the primary source of sunflower oil, the fourth most widely produced vegetable oil. This versatile oil has been widely used in food production, cooking, cosmetics and medicine.
