Earlier Report Observations

Between 2018 and 2023, the pork market in Cambodia showed a volatile trajectory. After a slight increase to 112.9 thousand tons in 2019, the total market volume contracted for three consecutive years, falling to 99.4 thousand tons by 2022. This represented a cumulative decline of approximately 12% from the peak.

The drop was primarily driven by falling domestic production, which decreased from 112.8 thousand tons in 2019 to 98.6 thousand tons in 2022. From 2021 onward, imports began to play a noticeable role, rising from 0.6 thousand tons to 1.4 thousand tons in 2023, which helped cushion the overall market contraction.

A modest recovery occurred in 2023, with market volume rising to 101.6 thousand tons as production edged up to 100.2 thousand tons. The national agricultural survey in 2021 underscored the importance of livestock documentation, indicating continued institutional focus on the sector.
