  • Does Togo produce voandzou?
  • Concerning legumes, Togo produces voandzou, beans, and groundnuts. For the latter, while annual yields were usually around 40,000 tons, they have been decreasing recently due to the closure of some peanut oil factories. In 2018, the country produced 208,000 tons of beans and cowpeas. These are mainly cotton, coffee, cocoa, and palm oil.
  • What are food crops in Togo?
  • Food crops make up 70% of all of Togo’s agricultural output. They are primarily destined to local consumption rather than exported. Regardless, they generate substantial, and “safe,” revenues for farmers, given the permanent demand of the domestic market. They include mainly grains and tubers.
  • How much rice does Togo produce?
  • Most of Togo’s rice is grown in the Savanes region. For farmers, it is relatively expensive to cultivate and they struggle against imports from Asia mainly. To reverse this trend, various projects were recently launched to boost rice production, in the Djagblé plain especially. In 2018, Togo produced 145,000 tons of rice.
  • How much corn is grown in Togo?
  • It is grown by 1.5 million Togolese farmers across four agro-ecological zones, over more than 700,000 hectares (40% of total lands dedicated to food crops). Corn farming has kept increasing since 1990, in the northern region especially. For the 2018-2019 agricultural campaign, maize output stood at 886,630 tons.
