Earlier Report Observations
The watermelon market in Guinea expanded consistently from 2018 to 2023, with volume rising from 73 508 t to 94 357 t. This growth was primarily driven by the launch of the AgriFARM project in 2018, which aimed to sustainably increase incomes for 78 000 family farms, enhance their resilience to external shocks, and improve their access to local, urban, and regional markets across 15 prefectures, supported by $121 million in funding.
Continued support through additional financing agreements for AgriFARM in 2019 and a mid-term review in 2022 helped adjust actions to further strengthen market access. Government protocols with the private sector in 2022 and 2024 guaranteed supply and price stability for essential goods, creating a favorable trade environment. Despite a 150% surge in maritime freight costs and new export taxes from India in 2023, which disrupted supply chains, the maintenance of fiscal and customs subsidies on staple foods helped stabilize consumer prices, supporting overall demand. The official launch of a price monitoring system in 2024 further aimed to improve market transparency and regulation.
