Earlier Report Observations

The market for alliaceous vegetables in Comoros displayed significant volume changes between 2018 and 2023. Starting from approximately 2,600 tons, the market grew steadily, reaching its highest point of over 2,800 tons in 2021. This expansion was supported by consistent annual growth in domestic production, which increased from 1,460 tons to 1,631 tons over the period.

The market's trajectory shifted after 2021, entering a pronounced contraction that brought the volume down to around 2,100 tons by 2023. This downturn was primarily due to a steep decline in import volumes, which fell from 1,254 tons in 2021 to 462 tons in 2023. The reduction in imports outweighed the continued, though modest, growth in local production during these years.

Consequently, the total market volume in 2023 was more than 25% lower than its 2021 peak. The period highlights the market's dependence on import flows, which became the dominant variable affecting overall supply, while domestic production demonstrated gradual but persistent growth.
