South Korea: Oilseeds and Products Annual

MY 2021/22 Korean soybean production and consumption is projected to remain mostly unchanged from the prior year, amid stagnant domestic production and flat consumer demand, following a small decline in 2020/21. 2021/22 soybean imports are also expected to hold steady, after a small in increase in 2020/21. Korea resumed the use of soybean oil in biodiesel production in 2019 and soybean oil imports are expected to rise moderately over the next few years, with expanding U.S. market share. COVID-19 has created greater demand of soybean oil to produce mayonnaise for both home consumption and home meal replacement (HMR).
