W51 Sesame Seed Update: Egypt’s Sesame Seed Supply Disrupted by Conflict in Sudan, while China Experienced Weak Imports in Nov-23

Lei Wang · Dec 29, 2023

Sudan Conflict's Impact on Egypt's Sesame Imports

Egypt's heavy reliance on sesame imports, predominantly 86% sourced from Sudan in 2022, has faced severe disruptions due to the Sudanese conflict since Apr-23. This disruption significantly affected the supply of sesame seeds in Egypt. With ongoing challenges regarding Sudan's sesame seed production capacity, coupled with the increase of Sudanese migrants to Egypt due to the conflict, there's an anticipated spike in Egyptian sesame seed imports. This scenario underlines Egypt's need to explore alternative importers besides Sudan. Notably, India and Brazil showed increased export figures to Egypt in 2023. India saw a 21.76% YoY hike, exporting 3,311 mt of sesame seed to Egypt from Jan-23 to Jul-23, while Brazil's exports surged by 189% YoY, reaching 2,432 mt from Jan-23 to Oct-23. Despite Egypt's efforts to enhance local sesame production, Tridge predicts the persistent absence of Sudan's sesame market, influencing the Egyptian sesame seed industry. Consequently, Egypt must diversify its sourcing channels effectively to increase sesame supply in 2024.

2022 End-of-Year Report

2022 was an eventful and demanding year for the agricultural sector. Many sectors were still finding their feet after the challenges posed by COVID-19 in the previous two years and the subsequent supply chain crisis from the latter parts of 2021 when they were hit with an unprecedented increase in input costs. In only the second month of the year, the Russia-Ukraine conflict triggered an exponential increase in global food, fertilizer, and energy costs, adding to an already bullish trend since mid-2021. The ripple effect of the conflict led to record inflation, exorbitant input costs, shortages of major staples, and rash policymaking. Amidst elevated production costs, producers had to deal with adverse weather conditions and the effects of climate change. Looking forward to 2023, producers will still face an unpredictable economic climate. The Russia-Ukraine war is still ongoing, and many logistical bottlenecks remain in the supply chain. A volatile geopolitical landscape could lead to trade disputes and regulations, impacting agricultural trade. Producers also have to contend with more weather anomalies brought on by the La Niña phenomenon. However, 2023 will also bring new opportunities for innovative solutions and developing robust supply chains. Consumers’ emphasis on healthy and sustainable eating, which was pushed to the background by high living costs, could again gain traction if living costs continue to decline.
