The actual vegetables production in Nigeria stood at 16.10 million metric tons in 2023. The forecasted data from 2024 to 2028 shows a slightly increasing trend in production volume with incremental rises each year: 16.22 million metric tons in 2024, 16.25 in 2025, 16.29 in 2026, 16.32 in 2027, and 16.36 in 2028. Over the last two years, the year-on-year variation shows a minimal increase of about 0.2% to 0.3% annually. The CAGR over the five-year period indicates a modest growth rate of approximately 0.3% per year.
Future trends to watch for would include potential impacts of climate change, advances in agricultural technology, government policies on agriculture, and market demand shifts within both local and international markets in order to predict more accurate long-term outputs. These factors could considerably influence the production volumes, either amplifying or mitigating the forecasted slight growth trend.
