The seeds of a plant when used as a source of vegetable oil are called oilseeds. Though oil can be extracted from many parts of the plant, seeds are primarily used for commercial purposes. Oil is extracted from seeds by a machine known as oilseed press. Over the course of time, several oilseed presses are designed to improve the efficiency and making the process cost effective.
Vegetable oils are generally used as ingredients in food to improve the texture and to impart certain flavors. Some of the oils with high flash point such as sunflower oil and soybean oil are used as cooking oils. Apart from its applications in cooking, vegetable oils are used in making soaps, perfumes and cosmetic products. They are also used as bio fuels and in the manufacture of some pet foods.
Asia Pacific Oilseed Market Drivers:
Increase in the consumption of vegetable oils for cooking purposes and growing food industry are the major factors driving the oilseed market. Reduction in prices due to the new processing equipment and development of effective extraction process, high penetration of retail and wholesale distribution channels in rural as well as urban areas are propelling the oilseed market. Stringent government regulations on manufacturing and exports and loopholes in distribution channels are restraining the growth of the market.
By Type:
Soybean leads the oilseed market and it is also expected to be the fastest growing market segment. It is due to its higher production and increased demand for household consumption.
By Application:
Household consumption is the largest application of oilseeds and due to the rapidly growing food service industry. Food service application is the fastest growing market segment. Also, due to the increasing focus on alternate fuel sources, use of vegetable oils as bio fuels is rising significantly. Based on biotech trait, the market is categorized into Insecticide resistant, herbicide tolerant and other Traits.
Regional Analysis:
On the basis of region, the Asia Pacific Oilseed market is segmented into
Asia Pacific is the fastest growing market for oilseeds due to the large production of oil seeds by India and China and large consumption of vegetable oils as well.
