Earlier Report Observations

The market volume for rapeseed, colza or mustard oil in SADC declined from 52 226 t in 2018 to 41 758 t by 2020. Early in the period, seed technology improvements and favorable weather conditions supported the global oilseed sector, providing a positive foundation for the local market.

A sharp turnaround began in 2021 when drought conditions reducing global production and supply chain disruptions caused rapeseed and canola oil prices to soar by over 80%, stimulating market activity and lifting volume to 55 386 t. The following year, trade restrictions and the war in Ukraine escalated global vegetable oil prices, contributing to a slight market contraction to 52 953 t. By 2023, the market volume surged significantly to 71 919 t.
