The Ivorian government announced on Wednesday, March 11, 2026, the mandatory minimum prices for the 2026 cashew nut marketing campaign. According to the authorities, the mandatory farmgate price is set at 400 CFA francs per kilogram. For inland sales, the minimum price is set at 425 CFA francs/kg. At factory outlets, the minimum price is 454 CFA francs/kg, while the minimum price at port outlets is set at 484 CFA francs/kg. According to the statement consulted by Abidjan.net, this measure aims to protect producers, ensure better market organization, and guarantee the quality of the product on the market. In this statement, the Cotton, Cashew, and Shea Council specifies that these prices apply exclusively to well-dried and properly sorted cashew nuts. Stakeholders in the sector are therefore urged to strictly adhere to these minimum prices throughout the campaign. The Cotton, Cashew, and Shea Council also reiterates that quality remains a key requirement for product acceptance. To this end, cashew nuts with a moisture content exceeding 10% will not be accepted for unloading, a measure designed to safeguard the quality of Ivorian production on the market. Producers, buyers, and operators in the sector are urged to comply with these provisions to ensure the smooth running of the marketing campaign. For further information or to report any irregularities in the application of these minimum prices, stakeholders in the sector can contact 1690 or their regional office of the Cotton, Cashew, and Shea Council.
