Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2021, coconut production in Guinea-Bissau held steady at 49,200 t annually, with market volume remaining around 49,200 t. This stability coincided with the agricultural sector's prominence as the main economic activity, offering opportunities for small and medium enterprises in food production and processing. In 2020, the Ianda Guiné Hortas project supported horticultural production in 40 rural communities, promoting sustainable techniques and value chain organization, which may have reinforced agricultural resilience.

Production declined to 48,000 t in 2022, a 2.4% drop, before rising to 50,400 t in 2023, a 5% increase. Market volume followed a similar trajectory, reaching 50,403 t in 2023.
