Earlier Report Observations

The market for butter, dairy spreads, and milk fats in Tajikistan saw considerable changes from 2018 to 2023. Starting at 562 tons in 2018, the total volume fell to 463 tons the following year, coinciding with a sharp drop in imports. Domestic production increased during this time, providing some offset to the decline.

A recovery in imports helped lift the market to 480 tons in 2020, even as local production decreased. The market then contracted to 371 tons in 2021, with both production and imports lower, and stabilized near this level through 2022.

In 2023, the market volume rose to 432 tons, driven by a significant increase in imports while domestic output remained unchanged. Throughout the period, exports were negligible, indicating that supply relied entirely on local production and foreign purchases.
