Earlier Report Observations

The market volume for groundnut oil-cake in Western Asia stood at 18 093 tons in 2018, then contracted to 16 377 tons in 2019. It stabilized around 16 100 tons in 2020 before entering a steady growth phase, reaching 19 299 tons by 2023. This represented a total increase of 3 206 tons over the five-year period.

These factors emphasize ongoing innovation and the importance of local production capacities in the region.
