Earlier Report Observations

The market volume for groundnut oil-cake in Niger started at 43 542 t in 2018, rose to 47 061 t in 2019, then dipped to 44 791 t in 2020.

In 2021, the market expanded sharply to 57 854 t, coinciding with government-led land restoration and agricultural infrastructure rehabilitation programs that aimed to increase peanut production and subsequently boosted oil-cake output. However, by 2022 the volume fell back to 48 411 t.

The market recovered slightly to 50 560 t in 2023 alongside legislative reforms in the mining and hydrocarbons sectors that could influence broader economic activity. By 2024, the halt of peanut oil production by OLGA OIL in Maradi due to lower local peanut yields directly reduced domestic oil-cake supply, prompting a surge in imports to 9 279 t.
