Bran, sharps and residues from cereal or legume processing market in Pakistan

Earlier Report Observations

Between 2018 and 2023, the market volume for bran, sharps and residues from cereal or legume processing in Pakistan grew from 3.6 million tons to 4.5 million tons. This expansion was primarily driven by a consistent increase in domestic production, which rose from 3.7 million tons to 4.5 million tons over the period. Exports declined significantly from 121 thousand tons to 44 thousand tons, making more product available for domestic consumption and supporting market growth.

In early 2020, a change in India's customs duty structure for similar products, with a basic duty of 30% and an integrated GST of 5%, altered regional trade dynamics. This policy shift likely influenced export flows from Pakistan, contributing to the market's steady expansion during that year. The market experienced a temporary contraction in 2022 before rebounding strongly in 2023, reaching a new peak in volume.
