La campagne arachidière sénégalaise s’ouvre sous tension
As the 2025 campaign approaches, Senegalese producers are demanding an increase in the selling price of peanuts, between 350 CFA francs and 500 CFA francs/kg, well above the floor of 305 CFA francs set in 2024. This demand reflects the pressure exerted by the rise in production costs and the desire of farmers to obtain a more remunerative income.
The regions of Kaolack, Diourbel, Louga, and Kaffrine are the focus of the protests, while private operators are making their commitment contingent on the settlement of arrears from the previous season. Cooperatives and producers are awaiting swift intervention from the government to stabilize prices and secure incomes.
The sector, weakened by fluctuating costs and market uncertainties, illustrates the difficulty of reconciling profitable prices with competitiveness, both domestically and for export. The government's ability to intervene quickly could determine the success of this season and the future of Senegalese peanuts.
