Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2019, production of raw sheep and lamb skins increased from 104.9 thousand tons to 111.8 thousand tons. This growth was supported by improvements in veterinary assistance, including nationwide vaccination campaigns against endemic diseases such as anthrax, brucellosis, and foot-and-mouth disease, which enhanced herd health. Furthermore, the expansion of sheep farming across Mozambique, with specific breeds like Karakul aimed at skin production, increased the supply of raw materials.

Production declined to 104.4 thousand tons in 2020 but then recovered sharply to 116.2 thousand tons in 2021 and reached 134.2 thousand tons in 2022. By 2023, market volume stood at 139.7 thousand tons. The rebound and continued expansion were sustained by ongoing veterinary support and vaccination programs that maintained livestock health, despite persistent structural challenges from informal cattle trading without sanitary controls.
