Earlier Report Observations

Venezuela's cabbage market volume expanded from 83.3 thousand tons in 2018 to 118.4 thousand tons in 2021, driven primarily by agricultural support policies. The Gran Misión Agro-Venezuela, initiated in 2016 and reinforced by the 2018 National Urban Agriculture Plan, promoted urban farming to alleviate food shortages, providing a foundation for vegetable production. In 2019, the removal of price controls in certain sectors allowed more market-responsive pricing, stimulating supply and contributing to the rise in market volume. Although the COVID-19 pandemic and fuel shortages caused a minor dip in 2020, the continued support for urban and collective agriculture in 2021 facilitated a strong recovery, pushing the market to its peak.

From 2022 onward, the market stabilized around 117–116 thousand tons. The allocation of one million hectares of agricultural land to Iran for fruit and vegetable cultivation under a 20-year agreement began to boost domestic output, while persistent foreign-exchange restrictions and price regulations kept growth in check. The National Urban Agriculture Plan remained active, supporting local production, but limited access to official currency continued to affect costs and prices, leading to a slight contraction to 115.5 thousand tons in 2023.
