Malaysia is a 'clean importer' of oats products, especially the 'raw oats', 'oatmeal' and many other types. This is because the Oat is suitable for growing in cool climates with 'temperate' areas with adequate rainfall during the hot season and cold temperatures. Due to high local demand, Malaysia will continue to import oats from producing countries such as EU, USA, Russia and Australia as well as China since oats are totally indistinguishable in SEA countries
