Earlier Report Observations
The market for pig fat in Madagascar expanded steadily from 2018 to 2020, with volume growing from 369 t to 391 t, reflecting a period of gradual production increase.
After 2020, the market stabilized with volumes around 374 t in 2021 and 2022. During this time, initiatives to resume meat and live cattle exports, including pilot projects for animal breed and health improvement, were finalized, providing indirect support to the broader livestock sector and potential foundations for pig farming.
A sharp surge lifted the market to 444 t in 2023. This growth was contemporaneous with a notable rise in pork meat prices, which likely encouraged higher pork production and consequently increased the supply of pig fat as a by-product.
