The report offers a comprehensive analysis of key segments, trends, drivers, restraints, competitive landscape, and factors that are playing a substantial role in the market.

Global Oilseed Market Definition

Oilseed crops are raised all over the world and are important crops because of their economic importance. Most oilseed crops are raised for food oil. Due to a rise in the demand for their beneficial vegetable oils, animal feed, medicines, biofuels, and other oleochemical industrial uses, oilseeds have recently gained increased attention.

Global Oilseed Market Overview

The expansion of the is predicted to be fueled by the growing use of oilseeds in animal feed. Fatty acids, oil, minerals, protein, vitamins, and fiber are all abundant in oilseeds and are frequently employed in the process of extracting oil. The nutrient-rich pulp left behind after soybean oil extraction is turned into meals or oilcake and fed to dairy farm animals to increase milk production and quality while reducing feed requirements.

Oilseeds are highly sought-after due to their numerous uses. In cosmetic goods, oil seeds like sunflower are utilized as a sort of moisturizer. After food grains, oil seeds are India’s second-largest agricultural export. People are choosing vegetable oil over animal fat because they place a higher priority on their health. Another form of vegetable oil that is widely used in varnishes, paints, and lubricants is linseed oil. Consequently, it is projected that the market’s growth rate will be driven by the rising demand for oilseeds for a variety of applications.

However, during the projected period, it is anticipated that the new plant biotechnology traits’ long growing seasons and decreased planting rates will serve as the main market limitations. Government laws and shifting weather patterns will also be key short-term obstacles to market expansion. In the oilseeds industry, rising government efforts are a prominent trend that is gaining popularity.

Governments throughout the world are taking steps to enhance the production of oilseeds and reduce the expensive importation of vegetable oil. For instance, in August 2021, the Indian government announced the commencement of its National Mission on Oilseeds and Oil Palm. This plan aims to increase local oilseed production and achieve self-sufficiency in edible oil. The government would invest more than 110 billion rupees ($1.48 billion) through the National Mission on Oilseeds and Palm Oil to provide farmers with everything they require, including better tools and seeds.

Global Oilseed Market Segmentation Analysis

The Global Oilseed Market is segmented based on Product, Type, Breeding Type, Biotech Trait, And Geography.

Oilseed Market, By Product

• Edible Oil
• Animal Feed

Based on Product, the market is segmented into Edible Oil, Animal Feed. The product claims that in 2021, the animal feed category contributed the most to the market. Animal feeds have grown to be an important part of the integrated food chain because meat, seafood, poultry, and milk continue to play a big role in the world’s food supply.

Oilseed meal, a byproduct of processed oilseeds after oil extraction, is widely utilized in animal feeds and, as such, is a crucial economic component of oilseed production. Many varieties of oilseeds, such as copra, cottonseed, palm kernel, peanut, rapeseed, soybean, and sunflower seed, are used to make animal feed. Consequently, the oilseeds market’s animal feed segment had the most growth.

Oilseed Market, By Type

• Soybean
• Sunflower
• Cottonseed
• Sesame
• Rapeseed

Based on Type, the market is segmented into Soybean, Sunflower, Cottonseed, Sesame, and Rapeseed. The soybean segment contributed the most to the market in 2021, based on the type of oilseeds, per the oilseeds market trends. Due to the high demand for animal feed, particularly in developing nations like China, Brazil, India, Korea, and others, where the rapid rise in living standards allows the typical consumer to eat more meat, the world’s soybean production has increased, and is predicted to keep growing. Also, it is projected that a sizable demand for soybean-based vegetable oil as a biodiesel feedstock will increase soybean production, fueling the expansion of the oilseeds industry.

Oilseed Market, By Breeding Type

• Conventional
• Genetically Modified

Based on Breeding Type, the market is segmented into Conventional, Genetically Modified. The conventional segment held the most market share for oilseeds globally and is anticipated to keep doing so throughout the oilseeds market forecast. Conventional oilseeds are seeds that are produced through plant pollination in the wild and are easily accessible.

To produce the maximum potential crop yields, these oilseeds make extensive use of energy and chemicals. Even though traditional agriculture was used to enhance productivity in response to rising food demand, doing so degrades soil quality and harms the environment. The market for conventional oilseeds is anticipated to increase globally due to factors like product innovation and the upgrading of conventional farming practices.

Oilseed Market, By Biotech Trait

• Herbicide-Tolerant
• Insecticide-Resistant

Based on Biotech Trait, the market is segmented into Herbicide-Tolerant, Insecticide-Resistant. Herbicide-tolerant oilseeds made up the largest portion of the biotech trait-based oilseed market. Oilseeds or other crops that are herbicide-tolerant are created to withstand a particular or broad range of herbicides, which eliminate dangerous weeds in their immediate vicinity.

Growing crops that are herbicide-tolerant gives farmers the freedom to spray herbicides on their crops anytime the weed population spikes noticeably, shielding the crops from the herbicide’s negative effects. Also, significant R&D expenditures are being made to add more seeds or crops to the list of those that are herbicide-tolerant, making them appropriate for use in all geographical areas. In light of the aforementioned issues, the market for oilseeds with herbicide tolerance is projected to rise.

Oilseed Market, By Geography

• North America
• Europe
• Asia Pacific
• Rest of the world

The Global Oilseed Market is segmented based on geography into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Rest of the World. The biggest market share is held by Asia-Pacific. With a substantial market share in 2021, North America dominated the oilseed industry in 2021. This is brought on by the increased usage of cooking oil in everyday cooking, which boosts the production of oilseeds. Also, the United States has boosted its soybean production, which is causing the rise in soybean oil consumption to speed up market expansion. The world’s top soybean producer and second-largest exporter are the United States. 90% of the American oilseed production was soybeans.
