Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2023, castor seed production in Morocco remained stable, fluctuating within a narrow range from 163.5 t to 167.2 t. However, market volume, defined as production plus net imports, experienced more significant swings due to changes in import supplies.

A sharp rise in imports to 18.5 t in 2019 and 20 t in 2020 boosted market volume to 184.8 t and 187.2 t respectively. In the following two years, imports nearly vanished, reducing the market to the level of domestic production around 166 t. In 2023, imports recovered to 17.1 t, allowing the market to grow to 183.5 t.

The stability of domestic production points to sustained demand for castor seeds for traditional cosmetic use, supported by activity on local online platforms. Import fluctuations, however, remained the primary driver of changes in total market volume.
