Earlier Report Observations

Between 2018 and 2020, the market for rapeseed, colza or mustard oil in Asia was affected by global trade tensions and slower worldwide rapeseed production, which contributed to a decline in domestic output and total market volume in 2019. The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted global supply chains in 2020, but rising consumer demand for healthier, high-quality oils supported a recovery in both production and market size.

From 2021, the market entered a period of expansion. Improved domestic cultivation technology and policy support for rapeseed farming helped increase production. Although import volumes fell in 2022, leading to a slight contraction in total market volume, growth resumed strongly in 2023 as import sources diversified to include larger shipments from Russia and Australia, complementing rising domestic output.

The market's evolution continues to be influenced by significant policy initiatives, such as the launch of the National Mission on Edible Oils - Oilseeds (NMEO-OS) in 2024, which aims to boost domestic oilseed production. Increased competition among companies, growing use of rapeseed oil for biodiesel, and sustained consumer preference for non-GMO, organic, and cold-pressed varieties are driving further product innovation and structural change.
