Earlier Report Observations

The market for fresh, chilled, frozen or dried yams in Venezuela expanded consistently between 2018 and 2023, with total production volume rising from 45 653 t to 55 781 t. This represents an increase of 10 128 t or 22% over the five-year period.

Growth was not uniform across years. Production jumped by 6.7% in 2019, then stabilized in 2020 with only a 0.4% increase. A stronger rebound followed in 2021 with a 6.7% rise, after which growth continued at a moderated pace of 2.2% in 2022 and 4.7% in 2023. As imports and exports were negligible throughout, domestic production directly defined market size.
