Earlier Report Observations

The salted beef market in Niger opened the period at 144.7 tons in 2018, a level supported by the government's deep engagement in transforming the agropastoral sector under the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock. This policy drive focused on enhancing food security and supporting rural actors, contributing to market activity.

Market volume then fell sharply to 102.8 tons in 2019 before recovering to 128.4 tons in 2020. It saw a gradual decline to 119.7 tons in 2021 and 110.6 tons in 2022. The decrease in 2022 coincided with the entry into force of a new public procurement law in December, which altered the rules for state purchases and may have affected demand within the agropastoral sector.

A rebound followed in 2023, with the market reaching 129.6 tons. In 2024, the sector saw the organization of the SAHEL-NIGER agricultural fair to promote value chains and was affected by abundant rainfall that delayed farming campaigns and impacted supply.
