Earlier Report Observations

The market volume for yautia in Mexico fluctuated significantly between 2018 and 2023. Starting at 38 330 tonnes in 2018, it dropped to 30 267 tonnes the following year before rebounding sharply to over 40 000 tonnes in 2020 and 2021. This peak coincided with the COVID-19 pandemic, which disrupted supply chains and altered food demand patterns across the country. The subsequent period saw a steep contraction, with the market falling to 25 060 tonnes in 2022 and then to 22 850 tonnes in 2023.

The market's volatility was primarily driven by changes in production and export volumes. While production rose notably in 2020, reaching 50 959 tonnes, export activity intensified from 2019 onward. By 2023, exports had grown to 16 829 tonnes, diverting a larger share of domestic output abroad and reducing the volume available for the local market. This shift in trade flows contributed to the overall decline in market size observed after 2021.
