Earlier Report Observations
Groundnut oil production in Morocco experienced notable shifts from 2018 to 2023. Output rose from 13,577 t to 14,804 t in 2019, bolstered by improved oilseed sector productivity and stabilized peanut cultivation areas. The COVID-19 pandemic then disrupted agricultural markets, contributing to a drop to 13,411 t in 2020. A partial recovery followed in 2021, with production reaching 13,652 t, as global peanut oil trade adjustments and consumer shifts toward cheaper oils amid price increases supported local demand.
Production stabilized at 13,682 t in 2022, aligning with leveled domestic peanut harvests. In 2023, output grew again to 14,587 t, driven by rising table oil prices due to heavy reliance on imported raw materials and adverse climate conditions affecting global oilseed supplies, which incentivized local manufacturing. Throughout these years, the sector adhered to stringent food safety decrees and quality control measures implemented by Moroccan authorities.
