Earlier Report Observations

The Indonesian sheep and goat meat market opened the period at a high level of 306.9 thousand tonnes in 2018, with the government implementing cold chain regulations to improve the quality and safety of frozen meat. However, market volume contracted over the next three years, falling to 222.0 thousand tonnes by 2021. This decline coincided with a steady annual increase of around 6.62% in consumer prices for goat meat up to 2019, which likely restrained demand. Updated regulations governing the import of animals and animal products also reshaped supply conditions during this phase.

A sustained recovery began in 2022, propelled by active government support for the livestock sector. Key measures included programs to strengthen smallholder breeding systems and promote artificial insemination technology. To protect local farmers, authorities imposed a temporary suspension on imports of sheep and goat carcasses, encouraging domestic production. Broader economic recovery and the ongoing expansion of cold chain logistics further supported consumption growth, driving the market volume to 265.9 thousand tonnes in 2023.
