Earlier Report Observations
Production of cottonseed oil in Israel declined from 2,600 t in 2018 to 2,100 t the following year, with total market volume falling from 2,751 t to 2,211 t. This contraction coincided with a multi-year government initiative to allow tariff-free imports of olive oil, which increased competition within the broader vegetable oils market.
From 2020 to 2023, domestic production stabilized between 2,000 t and 2,300 t, while market size fluctuated, reaching 2,529 t in 2022. The market experienced a slight dip to 2,470 t in 2023, a period marked by global olive oil supply shortages and price spikes that could have influenced demand for alternative edible oils.
Imports of cottonseed oil remained a supplementary source, rising to 229 t in 2022 before falling back to 170 t in 2023. Preliminary data for 2024 showed imports of 210 t, against a backdrop of regulatory changes for olive oil labeling and a planned easing of rules for CBD products, which may affect the overall oils landscape.
