Earlier Report Observations

The market for non-rendered pig fat free of lean meat in Southern Asia grew from 29 569 t in 2018 to 30 270 t in 2019, supported by rising incomes, urbanization, and a growing middle class that increased consumer demand for meat products. Broader support for pig farming through breed improvement programs also contributed to stable supply during this period.

The COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 caused global supply chain disruptions, leading to a market decline to 27 824 t. This downward trend continued into 2021, with volume falling to 26 856 t amid ongoing logistical challenges and heightened focus on food safety. In 2021, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India issued new guidance on meat testing methods to enforce quality control and labeling standards, shaping market practices.

Market recovery began in 2022 as volume rose to 27 714 t, driven by reported increases in overall meat production, including pig meat. By 2023, volume reached 28 041 t, aided by the meat processing industry's adoption of advanced technologies for efficiency and sustainability, alongside growing exports that stimulated production.
