Data and Analysis
The poultry sector in Cote d’Ivoire is well established and contributes a substantial amount to the country’s agricultural GDP. Despite many challenges, such as Avian Influenza outbreaks and rising costs of feed and transport, the Ivoirian poultry industry has been able to overcome these challenges with great success.
Côte d’Ivoire has become one of the major palm oil producers on the continent. Since 2018, the country has produced more than 500,000MT yearly. Currently, production is expected to increase 26 percent in MY2022/23 while demand outweighs supply.
On July 26, 2016, Cote d’Ivoire announced the implementation of the national biosafety law after its adoption by parliament. Although the country is in the early stages of adopting agricultural biotechnology, its biosafety law is the foundation on which the country will manage the approval processes, risk management, containment, and labelling for genetically engineered (GE) products developed domestically or by a third country.
