Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2020, Uganda's non-rendered pig fat production rose from 10 138 tons to 10 984 tons. This growth occurred despite swine fever outbreaks constraining pig supplies, as increasing pork consumption driven by population growth and urbanization, alongside farmers adopting better feeding practices to improve efficiency, supported market expansion.

In 2021, production surged by over 50% to 17 211 tons, with market volume reaching 17 190 tons, marking a decisive upward shift in the market scale.

Output stabilized at around 17 250 tons in 2022 and 2023. During this phase, broader meat market dynamics including rising transportation costs and cattle disease outbreaks contributed to higher meat prices, while pig fat volumes remained steady.
