Earlier Report Observations

Between 2018 and 2023, the market volume for wheat bran and residues in Bolivia showed significant swings. Starting at 71 325 tonnes in 2018, supported by efficient regional milling operations that optimized the use of wheat by-products for animal feed, the market fell to 45 623 tonnes in 2019 and remained near 46 782 tonnes in 2020.

A strong rebound followed, with volumes reaching 78 862 tonnes in 2021 and peaking at 98 997 tonnes in 2022. The market then declined to 87 885 tonnes in 2023, a year in which the government allocated funds to import wheat and maize to secure domestic supply. By 2024, a major new processing plant opened in Viacha, signaling a push toward greater domestic production capacity under import-substitution policies.
