Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2019, the market for dried shelled cow peas in Guinea-Bissau remained relatively stable, with volume edging down from 658.9 t to 643.0 t. The country's agricultural sector, which emphasizes legume production including cow peas and supports small and medium enterprises, provided a stable foundation for domestic output during this period.

A significant shift occurred in 2020 when the market volume jumped to 920.5 t, driven by the arrival of 250.1 t of imports. This elevated import volume, which continued into 2021 at 250.0 t, kept the total market above 900 t for two consecutive years.

From 2022 onwards, imports rapidly decreased to 60.0 t and then to zero in 2023, causing the market to contract. By 2023, the market volume had returned to 661.6 t, a level comparable to 2018 and sustained entirely by domestic production.
