Earlier Report Observations

The cassava market in the Bahamas saw notable volume fluctuations between 2018 and 2023. Starting at 996.5 tons in 2018, market size dropped to 935 tons in 2019, partially recovered to 956.5 tons in 2020, then fell again to 917.1 tons in 2021. A gradual rebound followed, reaching 933.6 tons in 2022 and 963.9 tons in 2023.

Movement in total market volume was shaped by contrasting trends in domestic production and imports. Domestic output held steady between 856 and 871 tons from 2018 to 2020 before declining to approximately 825 tons by 2023. Meanwhile, imports fell sharply from 140.2 tons in 2018 to 68.6 tons in 2019, a key driver of that year's market contraction. Import volumes later recovered, rising to 139.2 tons in 2023 and supporting the overall market expansion in the final year of the period.
