Earlier Report Observations
The cabbage market in Mongolia experienced significant growth in total volume between 2018 and 2023, rising from 45 841 tons to 59 099 tons. This overall expansion was supported by a strong and consistent increase in domestic cabbage production, which more than doubled over the six-year period.
A major transformation in supply sources accompanied this growth, as imports fell sharply from 27 051 tons in 2018 to 13 253 tons in 2023. The steepest decline in imports occurred in 2022, which caused a temporary dip in the total market size even as local production continued to rise steadily.
By 2023, the market had recovered and reached its highest volume, indicating a shift toward greater reliance on domestic cabbage output to meet consumption needs. The period concluded with a market fundamentally reshaped by growing local production capacity.
