Earlier Report Observations

The market for bran, sharps and residues from cereal processing in Mexico expanded consistently from 2.6 million tonnes in 2018 to nearly 3 million tonnes by 2022. This growth was interrupted in 2023 when the market volume contracted to 2.8 million tonnes.

The peak in 2022 coincided with new sustainability efforts, such as Mexico City's voluntary Zero Food Waste Certification program for large generators of organic waste. This initiative aimed to improve the management of cereal-based residues, reinforcing their value as a resource. Simultaneously, the established use of these by-products as concentrates and supplements in animal feed for livestock, poultry, and pigs provided steady industrial demand.

The market contraction in 2023 occurred alongside a slight recovery in imports. The established infrastructure for using these residues in animal feed continued to underpin the sector.
