In 2023, Russia led the global linseed production with a dominant share, showing a significant year-on-year increase of 23.11%. Afghanistan, Sweden, and Romania also posted strong gains, indicative of growing production capacities. Conversely, major producers like Kazakhstan, Canada, and China recorded reductions in their shares. India showed a notable decline of 7.84%, matched by other dips in Egypt, Brazil, and Bangladesh. Emerging countries such as Estonia and France demonstrated resilience with positive trends, though smaller in global output.
Looking ahead, trends to watch include Russia reinforcing its leading position, while countries with negative growth may focus on technological and agronomic improvements to regain competitiveness in linseed production. The expansion in Europe, particularly in France and Sweden, suggests a possible shift or diversification in the linseed production base within this region.
