Sunflower protein concentrate (SPC) is gaining recognition as a high-quality, plant-based protein source in animal nutrition due to its favorable amino acid profile, high digestibility, and functional feed properties. This scoping review synthesizes current research on SPC's nutritional composition, processing methods, and international trade dynamics, with a particular focus on Ukraine's growing role as a producer and exporter. Technological advancements such as dehulling, decellulosing, and membrane fractionation have significantly enhanced SPC's suitability for poultry and swine diets, while research on ruminants, aquaculture, and rabbits remains limited. The review also addresses broader challenges - such as climate-induced variability in seed quality, the lack of harmonized quality standards, and logistical constraints during geopolitical disruptions - that influence the development and application of SPC. By integrating evidence across disciplines, this work highlights the need for further research, regulatory alignment, and standardization to support the global scaling of SPC as a sustainable and functional feed ingredient.

Keywords: sunflower protein concentrate, high-protein sunflower meal, animal nutrition, feed ingredient quality, scoping review, Ukraine, feed processing technologies, global feed trade, poultry, aquaculture
