Oilseeds Market Growth Catalysts And Demand Drivers
The increasing integration of oilseeds into animal feed is projected to fuel the growth of the oilseed market in the coming period. Oilseeds are abundant in oil, fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, protein, and fiber, all of which are commonly extracted for their oil content. Post-extraction, the nutrient-rich pulp is converted into oilcake or meals, which are then fed to dairy farm animals. This process helps to boost the yield and quality of milk while also reducing overall feed requirements. For instance, in 2023, the NSW Department of Primary Industries, an Australia-based government agency, recorded total oilseed production at 2,744 tonnes, marking a 13% decrease from the previous year’s record yet still standing 60% above the state’s long-term average. Therefore, the expanding use of oilseeds in animal feed is a key driver for the demand in the oilseed market.
