South Africa: Oilseeds and Products Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Oilseed production in South Africa is expected to decrease by 15 percent in the 2014/15 MY, due to a mid-summer drought that hit the main summer rainfall producing areas. Post, however, forecasts that oilseed production will increase in the 2015/16 MY to reach a historical high of 2.0 million tons on 1.5 million hectares, due to the added soybean crushing capacity and the increased affinity by farmers to use soybeans as a rotational crop with corn. As a result, South Africa will crush a record of 1.8 million tons of oilseeds in the 2015/16 MY and oilseed meal imports will drop by 15 percent to about 495,000 tons.
