Earlier Report Observations

The market for rapeseed oilcake in Australia expanded from 483 thousand tonnes in 2018 to 671.9 thousand tonnes in 2023. Initial growth was supported by the widespread adoption of genetically modified oilseeds, which improved crop yields and production efficiency. The COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 caused global supply-chain disruptions, yet it also accelerated consumer preference for health-oriented and sustainably sourced products, reinforcing output.

A pronounced surge occurred in 2021, with market volume jumping 29% to 657.5 thousand tonnes. This leap was primarily driven by rising environmental consciousness, which led producers to adopt eco-friendly farming practices like water conservation and biodiversity promotion, thereby boosting rapeseed production and oilcake supply. Subsequent stabilization in 2022-2023 coincided with the commencement of significant exports, influenced by global trade shifts such as the Black Sea Grain Initiative.

Production continued its upward trajectory, reaching 713.7 thousand tonnes in 2023, while exports grew steadily, projected to reach 44.7 thousand tonnes by 2025. This sustained expansion reflects the market's underlying capacity and its integration into international trade flows.
