The 2023 and previous actual data indicate Ghana as the leader in cassava losses at 6.41 million metric tons, followed by Nigeria and Thailand. Ghana, Angola, and Tanzania showed positive growth, while Brazil and several others saw declines. Laos exhibited the highest growth rate at 2.13%, while Sierra Leone and India reported notable decreases. The 5-year CAGR highlights significant shifts, with Ivory Coast, Cuba, and Senegal displaying high positive trends, contrasting with the downtrends in Brazil and Indonesia.
Future trends to watch include the increasing applications of cassava in various industries, potentially exacerbating losses without efficiency improvements, and the impact of climate change on production stability across leading cassava-producing countries.
