Earlier Report Observations

Production of fresh or chilled duck meat in Northern Africa fell sharply from 79 703 t in 2018 to 49 000 t in 2020. The market volume followed a similar trajectory, dropping to 48 998 t in 2020 after starting at 55 028 t in 2019.

The decline in 2020 coincided with the global impact of COVID-19 lockdowns and avian influenza outbreaks, which disrupted supply chains and dampened demand for meat products. A partial recovery to 59 000 t in production and a market volume of 58 997 t in 2021 occurred despite continued pressure from rising feed and energy costs that affected meat markets worldwide.

Avian influenza continued to constrain duck production in key supplying regions through 2023, contributing to a slow market recovery in Northern Africa, where volume reached 38 967 t. The gradual restart of duck sectors in Europe after the disease and evolving consumer preferences linked to urbanization further influenced the regional market dynamics.
