Earlier Report Observations

Production of cashew nuts in Burkina Faso remained stable at around 128 thousand tons from 2018 to 2021. During this period, the sector saw institutional strengthening with the establishment of the Conseil Burkinabè de l’Anacarde (CBA) in May 2019, a public economic body aimed at promoting the cashew value chain, although processing rates stayed low.

Output began to rise in 2022, reaching 134.9 thousand tons, and further increased to 145.1 thousand tons in 2023. This growth was supported by the government's policy to boost local processing to 45% by 2024, coupled with recovering demand from Asian processing hubs, which lifted farm-gate prices and intensified competition among domestic buyers.

In 2024, authorities introduced a ban on raw cashew exports from April to encourage local value addition and set a minimum purchase price of 385 FCFA/kg for the 2025 season, reinforcing the commitment to expand production and capture more value within the country.
