19/09/2025 (The Global News Light of Myanmar) - Local edible oil mills have been warned of a large-scale stock of oil cakes that may lead prices to rise, said Myanmar Edible Oil Millers’ Association (MEOMA) in a notice issued on 18 September.

Currently, prices of oil cake have gradually risen in the domestic market, according to sources.

The surge in oil cake prices may lead to increased prices of meat, fish, eggs, and dairy products as a result of an animal feed shortage, and drive the country to import soybean oil cake abroad, it said.

Oil cakes from groundnuts, sesame, sunflower, canola, and soybeans, byproducts of oil extraction, are major goods for Myanmar’s livestock sector.
