In monetary terms, the market value showed a different pattern, rising to 30.9 million USD in 2019 but ending the period lower at 27.2 million USD in 2023.

A significant shift in market structure underpinned these trends. Domestic production fell substantially from 33 000 t in 2018 to 25 300 t in 2023.

Export volumes remained minor throughout the period, declining from 903 t to 670 t.
