Cote d'Ivoire: Oilseeds and Products Report - 2024 Revised Update

Côte d’Ivoire ranks as Africa’s second largest producer of crude palm oil (CPO); trailing just behind Nigeria’s production, it is a pivotal player in the sub-Saharan regional market. FAS Abidjan (Post) forecasts Côte d’Ivoire’s palm oil production in market year (MY) 2024/2025 (October-September) at 620,000 metric tons (MT), four percent higher than the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) official MY 2024/2025 figure of 600,000 MT. The projected increase in palm oil production for MY 2024/2025 is attributed to the incorporation of new official data that better accounts for newly established smallholder plantations.
