Earlier Report Observations

The market for linseed oil-cake in Poland showed considerable volatility from 2018 to 2023. Market volume remained near 29 000 t to 30 000 t in 2018 and 2019, then rose to 33 636 t in 2020 before dropping to 26 780 t in 2021. A partial recovery to 28 505 t occurred in 2022, followed by a sharp decline to 19 701 t in 2023.

The increase in market volume in 2022 coincided with growing consumer demand for functional foods and plant-based omega-3 sources, which boosted interest in linseed oil-cake as a by-product. Conversely, the steep fall in 2023 was driven by global supply disruptions for vegetable oils and rising raw material prices, which reduced linseed oil production and consequently oil-cake output.

In 2024, the market saw a significant rise in imports of linseed oil-cake pellets, indicating stronger demand. Additionally, the implementation of GAEC 7 rules on crop diversification began affecting linseed cultivation practices.
