The analysis of global cassava non-food uses reveals China as the dominant market, contributing significantly higher volumes compared to other countries in 2024. Cambodia, the Philippines, and Indonesia follow a distant second, third, and fourth. Countries like Brazil, Thailand, and Benin showcased negative growth in 2023, while others such as Malaysia, Cuba, and the United States demonstrated robust growth rates. The past five years have seen variable growth rates, with notable declines in Thailand and exponential growth in Malaysia, highlighting regional differences in market dynamics and non-food applications.
Future trends to watch include intensified cassava processing in Asian countries, potentially altering supply chains and market shares. Additionally, technological advancements and increased demand for cassava-based biofuels may drive growth in previously low-volume regions. Environmental policies and economic factors will shape the trajectory of cassava applications beyond food uses.
