The most notable drop occurred in 2018, which saw a sharp decline of approximately 61% compared to the previous year. Following this decline, production rebounded with substantial growth in 2019. However, from 2020 onwards, there were more moderate fluctuations with a slight overall decline until 2022, culminating in a modest increase in 2023, reaching 50.987 million kilograms.
