"Cashew Nuts Production in Guinea-Bissau"

Ensa, Djassi

Abstract

Guinea-Bissau entered the international cashew market even before gaining political independence in 1974. The first export deliveries were confirmed in 1966, when 770 thousand tons were exported. This product has always ranked fourth in terms of export volume, just behind peanuts, coconut and their derivatives, and lumber. In 1970, the country exported 1,200 tons of cashew nuts. The shortage of cashew nuts in the international market, as a result of the sudden drop in production in Mozambique, was one of the factors that encouraged the reintroduction of nuts from Guinea-Bissau into the international market.

Keywords: agriculture, cashew nut, market, country, culture.
