Accelerated Demand for Healthy Food Emerges As a New Driver for the Global Oats Market

IndexBox has just published a new report: 'World - Oats - Market Analysis, Forecast, Size, Trends and Insights'. Here is a summary of the report's key findings.

The oat market indicated steady growth in 2020. The production and export of oats increased against heightened demand, not only from livestock farmers and producers of animal feed but also from a nascent trend emerging in the food sector: the use of oats as an ingredient in the manufacture of healthy food products.

Key Trends and Insights

IndexBox estimates indicate that oat output reached 23.6M tons in 2020. The demand for this cereal crop is currently rising due to the prominent use of oats in animal feed and the nascent trend emerging in the food sector for oat milk, convenient cereal products and oat-based protein. The demand for oat milk in 2020 was explosive. In the near-term outlook, it is forecast that oat milk should take a firm place on the market among its traditional competitors, such as cow, soya and almond milk.

Despite the logistics difficulties caused by the COVID-19 crisis, global oat exports surged by 7% in 2020 against 2019 figures, reaching 3.3M tons. Canada assumed the leading position in global oat exports in 2020, supplying a record 2M tons to the global market; approx. half of the Canadian oat yield is sent abroad. Since 2019, exports to Latin America, particularly to Chile, have been increasing. Chile has significantly expanded its oat processing capacity in recent years, even though Chilean oat crop yield remained low amid dry weather. In 2020, therefore, Chile was forced to secure an oat import volume that was six times larger than the amount recorded in 2019. Imports to Asian countries have also seen a 50% increase, particularly in China.

The established healthy-eating trend and the latest tendency to position oats as a premium food product should provide an additional incentive for the further development of this market. In contrast, the processing of oats for animal feed is set to remain a key driver in terms of demand. Forecasts indicate that the global oat market may reach $8В by 2030.

Global Oat Consumption

The global oat market rose to $7.4B in 2020, increasing by 4% against the previous year. This figure reflects the total revenues of producers and importers (excluding logistics costs, retail marketing costs, and retailers' margins, which will be included in the final consumer price). In general, consumption recorded a relatively flat trend pattern.

The countries with the highest volumes of oat consumption in 2020 were Russia (4.3M tons), the U.S. (2.3M tons) and Canada (2.2M tons), together comprising 37% of global consumption. These countries were followed by China, Australia, Finland, the UK, Germany, Poland, Brazil, Spain, Argentina and Sweden, which together accounted for a further 40%.

In value terms, the largest oat markets worldwide were China ($1B), Russia ($912M) and the U.S. ($535M), with a combined 33% share of the global market.

In 2020, the highest levels of oat per capita consumption were registered in Finland (192 kg per person), followed by Canada (58 kg per person), Australia (45 kg per person) and Sweden (42 kg per person), while the world average per capita consumption of oat was estimated at 3 kg per person.

Oat Exports by Country

Canada prevails in oat export structure, reaching 2M tons, which was approx. 62% of total exports in 2020. Sweden (234K tons) took a 7.2% share (based on tons) of total exports, which put it in second place, followed by Poland (4.5%). Finland (111K tons), Estonia (75K tons), Lithuania (69K tons), the UK (66K tons), France (65K tons) and Latvia (58K tons) followed a long way behind the leaders.

Exports from Canada increased at an average annual rate of +2.6% from 2012 to 2020. At the same time, Latvia (+34.4%), Lithuania (+22.1%), the UK (+16.4%), Poland (+15.4%), Estonia (+13.1%), France (+12.3%) and Sweden (+1.4%) displayed positive paces of growth. Moreover, Latvia emerged as the fastest-growing exporter exported globally, with a CAGR of +34.4% from 2012-2020. By contrast, Finland (-13.9%) illustrated a downward trend over the same period.

In value terms, Canada ($467M) remains the largest oat supplier worldwide, comprising 54% of global exports. The second position in the ranking was occupied by Finland ($92M), with an 11% share of global exports. It was followed by Sweden, with a 6% share.
