Earlier Report Observations
Between 2018 and 2021, Myanmar's production of flour from dried leguminous vegetables declined from 51 746 t to 39 012 t. This period was marked by the introduction of stricter regulatory frameworks, including the 2018 mandate for Myanmar-language labeling on food products and the 2021 National Food Safety Policy, which raised compliance costs for producers.
The contraction intensified from 2022 onward, with output dropping to 28 184 t in 2022 and 23 345 t in 2023. The enforcement of the 'Labeling Order for Pre-packaged Foods' in 2022 required producers to adopt new packaging standards, while heatwaves and climate-related supply shocks in 2023 further reduced the availability of raw legumes. Regulatory pressure continued in 2024 with the implementation of Food Product Notification requirements, reinforcing a trend toward tighter food safety controls.
