Not roasted and not cooked groundnuts market Turkey

Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2020, production of not roasted and not cooked groundnuts in Turkey increased from 173.8 thousand tons to 215.9 thousand tons, while the market volume expanded from 180.5 thousand tons to 230.2 thousand tons. This growth was driven by state-supported awareness and soil improvement programs for peanut farmers, which boosted domestic output. Concurrently, rising consumer preference for healthy snacks and raw peanuts stimulated demand.

In 2021, production peaked at 234.2 thousand tons, but the market volume declined to 219.1 thousand tons due to a surge in exports. The consumption of raw peanuts continued to grow, supported by health consciousness and demand for unsalted, natural products. The following year, production dropped to 186.3 thousand tons and the market volume fell to 181.5 thousand tons, a correction after the earlier boom. Factors such as the promotion of traditional farming methods using ancestral seeds helped maintain product quality during this period.

By 2023, production stabilized at 185.1 thousand tons, and the market volume recovered to 211.5 thousand tons. The expansion of online sales channels made peanut varieties more accessible, and consumer reviews influenced purchasing decisions. Ongoing state support for producer awareness and soil improvement, along with persistent demand for raw and in-shell peanuts among health-conscious consumers, underpinned the market.
