Earlier Report Observations

Between 2018 and 2023, the market volume for dried shelled legumes in Dominica showed variability, starting at 679.1 t in 2018 and reaching 710.6 t in 2023. The market peaked at 795.1 t in 2019, followed by declines in 2020 and 2021, a partial recovery in 2022, and a slight contraction in 2023.

This trajectory was primarily driven by changes in import volumes, which surged by over 40% to 391.3 t in 2019, boosting the total market. Subsequently, import reductions contributed to the market's decline in the following years. Domestic production remained relatively steady throughout the period, fluctuating within a narrow range around 410 t.

While complete market data for 2024 is not available, import figures show a significant increase, reaching 678.6 t. This suggests a potential major shift in supply for that year.
