Earlier Report Observations

Between 2018 and 2023, the market volume for oil seeds and oleaginous fruits in the Americas showed considerable volatility. It grew from 87 800 t to 128 000 t in 2019, then fell to 99 500 t in 2020. A recovery to 127 400 t occurred in 2021, followed by a steep decline to 75 600 t in 2022 and a rebound to 89 300 t in 2023.

Throughout the period, industry developments included strategic collaborations and capacity expansions. In 2022, Corteva Agriscience, BASF, and MS Technologies partnered to develop advanced Enlist E3 soybeans with nematode resistance, while Cargill Inc. planned a new soybean processing facility in Missouri. The adoption of genetically modified oilseeds with enhanced traits like insect resistance and herbicide tolerance also progressed, aiming to improve yields and seed value.

Shifts in consumer preferences towards vegetable oils over animal fats influenced demand, and regional production hubs in Mexican states such as Jalisco and Estado de México strengthened export capabilities. Favorable climate conditions in North America supported oilseed agriculture, contributing to consistent production despite market fluctuations.
