In 2023, Thailand dominated the global export market for flour or meal of sago, starchy roots, or tubers, leading by a substantial margin. Ivory Coast and Brazil followed, but with significantly smaller volumes. Notably, Slovenia exhibited remarkable growth, with a year-on-year increase of 164.29%. Other countries such as Peru, Netherlands, and Colombia also showed positive growth trends.
Conversely, some countries witnessed declines, such as Canada, Singapore, and Italy, indicating shifts in their export capacities or global market dynamics. The average compound annual growth rate over the past five years highlights that countries like Ivory Coast, Brazil, and Peru are experiencing upward trajectories in their exports.
Future trends to watch include the impact of economic and environmental factors on production and export capacities in major markets. Additionally, continued growth in emerging markets like Slovenia and FAO’s advocacy for root crop diversification may further transform global market dynamics.
