Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2020, the market volume for fresh carrots and turnips in Algeria showed variability, starting at 431.8 thousand tons in 2018. That year, the state programmed the modernization of fruit and vegetable wholesale markets under the national distribution plan to protect citizens' purchasing power, supporting market stability. In 2019, volume dipped to 419.5 thousand tons, while carrot exports saw a significant percentage increase. The market then rebounded to 447.6 thousand tons in 2020, a year where vegetable production remained a key component of Algerian agriculture.

After a drop to 414.3 thousand tons in 2021, the market recovered to 421.8 thousand tons in 2022. This recovery was driven by the entry of new companies into the agricultural sector, with developments in technological infrastructure like vertical farms to improve vegetable production. Algeria's position as the second-largest African producer of carrots and turnips also stimulated investments.

In 2023, market volume rose further to 434.2 thousand tons, supported by an 8% growth in the value of the processed fruit and vegetable market and ongoing government measures to stabilize prices of basic foodstuffs. For 2024, spring weather conditions adversely affected early vegetable growth, impacting carrot yields, while trade data showed an 18% decrease in carrot exports between May and August.
