Turkey meat and offal market in Oceania

Earlier Report Observations

The market for turkey meat and offal in Oceania contracted between 2018 and 2023, with total consumption falling from 25 420 t to 22 298 t. This decline was primarily driven by a reduction in domestic production, which decreased from 23 162 t to 21 730 t over the period.

Imports played a significant role in the market dynamics, halving from 3 127 t in 2021 to 1 901 t in 2023. Export volumes were volatile, with a notable spike to 2 504 t in 2020 that temporarily reduced net available supply, before returning to more typical levels.

By 2023, both production and market volume showed signs of stabilization, with production holding steady at 21 730 t and the overall market size settling at 22 298 t after the earlier declines.
