Earlier Report Observations

Cashew nut production in Burkina Faso stabilized at approximately 128 thousand tonnes per year between 2018 and 2021. This period saw the creation of the Burkinabè Cashew Council (CBA) in 2019 to structure the sector, followed by the announcement in 2020 of a planned ban on raw nut exports to encourage domestic processing.

Output then rose to 134.9 thousand tonnes in 2022 and reached 145.1 thousand tonnes in 2023. The increase was primarily driven by higher producer prices, which climbed to 330 FCFA per kilogram in 2022 and were supported by an official minimum price of 310 FCFA/kg in 2023. These measures, along with the sector's growing importance as Burkina Faso's second-largest agricultural export, stimulated cultivation and market activity.

The government's policy to boost local value addition culminated in the March 2024 ban on exporting raw cashew nuts, which is designed to secure supply for processing plants and enhance in-country transformation rates.
