In 2023, Egypt's whole fresh sheep milk production stood at 91.35 thousand metric tons. Forecasted production values for the years 2024 through 2028 indicate a gradual decline. Specifically, production is expected to decrease from 91.21 thousand metric tons in 2024 to 90.67 thousand metric tons by 2028. The year-on-year percentage variations show a trend of slight decreases, with an average annual decline (CAGR) over the five-year period indicating a consistent but minimal reduction in production volumes. Given this trend, it is essential to monitor factors impacting sheep milk production, such as changes in agricultural practices, climate conditions, and shifts in market demand.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Technological advancements in farming and livestock management.
- The impact of climate change on sheep grazing lands.
- Fluctuations in domestic and international demand for sheep milk products.
- Policy changes and support measures from the government affecting the dairy sector.
- Economic conditions influencing the overall agricultural sector in Egypt.
