South Africa Dairy Products Market Overview, 2029

South Africa Dairy Products Market Overview, 2029


In South Africa, the fourth-largest agricultural sector is milk production. Through food security and the profits from the export of dairy products, the milk and dairy industries significantly contribute to the South African economy. There are four main breeds in the dairy industry in South Africa: Holstein, Jersey, Ayrshire and Guernsey. There are a lot of distinct economic activities that make up this business, and there are big variations in the dairy product processing and farming practices. Raw milk, pasteurized milk and cream, fermented milk, long-life milk and cream, yoghurt, cheese and its by-product whey, milk powder, sweetened and unsweetened condensed milk, butter, and butter oil (ghee) are among the products produced and marketed in this way. When milk is first used and started to provide value, the dairy supply chain is initiated. The Covid 19 epidemic, which had impacted the majority of the typical value chain within the agricultural sector, had minimal effect on the dairy business, according to Milk South Africa. Under the pandemic conditions, dairy products have fared well in South Africa, where the majority of raw milk supply was directed toward the dairy product industry. Aside from the Covid-19 pandemic, there were other issues in the dairy business. At the raw milk production level, producers were getting very low prices from processors because of things like a greater number of suppliers, imports of ultra high temperature (UHT), and a lack of product differentiation.
