Australia Oilseed Market Analysis

The Australia Oilseed Market size is estimated at USD 2.48 billion in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 3.25 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 5.60% during the forecast period (2025-2030).

The Australian oilseeds market plays a significant role in the country’s agricultural sector, with oilseeds being grown for various purposes, including food products, animal feed, and biofuels. Key oilseeds produced in Australia include canola, sunflower seeds, and soybeans, with canola being the most prominent oilseed crop.

The demand for canola oil has increased due to growing health awareness among consumers, leading to a rise in rapeseed demand for oil processing across countries. Favorable climate conditions in western and southern Australia, combined with improved domestic and international canola prices, have boosted rapeseed production to meet expanding demand in importing countries. According to FAOSTAT, sunflower seed production in 2023 reached 37,045 metric tons increase from 29,800 metric tons in 2022. This has resulted in increased sunflower seed exports from Australia. ITC Trade Map data shows that in 2023, rapeseed exports totaled 299 metric tons in 2023.

Government initiatives to develop trade relations with Asia have highlighted the importance of high-quality GM and non-GM oilseeds from Australia in the region. The Australian Export Grains Innovation Center (AEGIC), in collaboration with Grain Trade Australia, has been working to develop Australian canola exports for Chinese processing industries. In 2024, the Australian government approved five genetically modified crops for cultivation and imports, including four oilseeds: canola, cotton, Indian mustard, and safflower, as reported by the Department of Health and Aged Care.
