In 2023, the yield of primary oilseeds in Kenya stood at 1.49 thousand hectograms per hectare. Based on the forecasted data, the yield is expected to show a year-on-year decrease from 2024 to 2028:
- 2024: 1.47 thousand hectograms per hectare (-1.34% YoY)
- 2025: 1.45 thousand hectograms per hectare (-1.36% YoY)
- 2026: 1.42 thousand hectograms per hectare (-2.07% YoY)
- 2027: 1.4 thousand hectograms per hectare (-1.41% YoY)
- 2028: 1.38 thousand hectograms per hectare (-1.43% YoY)
The average compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for the yield from 2023 to 2028 is approximately -1.51%, indicating a consistently declining trend.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of climate change on agricultural productivity, advances in farming technologies, and government policies aimed at increasing crop yield efficiency. These factors could potentially mitigate the downward trend in oilseed yields.
