Earlier Report Observations

Between 2018 and 2023, the market volume for groundnut oil-cake in Eastern Asia showed significant variability. Starting at 2 769 thousand tons in 2018, it dropped to 2 483 thousand tons in 2019 amid increasing competition and consolidation within the edible oils sector. A sharp recovery followed in 2020, with volume reaching 2 916 thousand tons. This growth was driven by the COVID-19 pandemic, which heightened consumer demand for health-oriented products and boosted vegetable oil processing, thereby increasing oil-cake output.

After the 2020 peak, volume moderated to 2 786 thousand tons in 2021 before rising again to 2 945 thousand tons in 2022. The 2022 expansion coincided with record export values for plant extracts, reflecting strong international demand for vegetable-based ingredients that stimulated oil extraction activity. In 2023, the market eased to 2 824 thousand tons as industry focus shifted toward used cooking oil exports and advancements in sustainable aviation fuel technology, influencing the broader oil-processing landscape.
