Egypt: Oilseeds and Products Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   EG2025-0013
FAS/Cairo (Post) forecasts Egypt’s soybean imports in marketing year (MY) 2025/26 (October – September) to increase by 5.0 percent from the previous marketing driven by a flexible exchange rate, the availability of forex and a more positive outlook for the livestock sectors. U.S.-origin soybean exports to Egypt accounted for almost 70.0 percent of the total beans exported to Egypt during the past five marketing years. U.S. beans are likely to continue to lead the soybean market in Egypt during the forecasted period due to increased demand of higher quality meal incorporated in feed rations and high-quality soybean oil. Overall feed use of oilseed meals is also forecasted up, driven by demand from end users. Higher levels of sunflowerseed oil consumption and trade in the forecasted and current marketing years is mainly driven by lack of local production and higher consumption.
