Earlier Report Observations

The non-vegetable wax market in Burundi showed slight growth from 179.8 t in 2018 to 181.4 t in 2020, supported by the government's National Development Plan 2018-2027 which prioritized modernizing agriculture and beekeeping. Imports in 2019 and 2020 added to domestic production, contributing to the increase in market volume.

A decline to 178.1 t occurred in 2021, coinciding with reported shortages of selected seeds that affected agricultural production and likely bee forage. In 2022, growing environmental concerns about chemical pesticides harming bees emerged as a challenge for beekeeping, yet the market stabilized around 178 t.

Through 2023, continued government efforts to intensify agriculture, including public tenders for animal feed ingredients and rising farmer demand for fertilizers, provided broader sector support. The non-vegetable wax market remained steady at 177.7 t, reflecting resilience amid policy initiatives and environmental factors.
