Senegal Millets Market Research Report, 2028

Millet serves as the main local subsistence food crops in Senegal. Senegal's millet production has increased by 112,078 metric tons (MT) from 2021 levels to 637,000 metric tons in 2022. Much of Senegal lies within the drought-prone area where rainfall is irregular and soils are of poor quality. Senegalese agriculture is dominated by dry land production, with only around 5% of land under irrigation, and most of the country’s producers are subsistence or small-scale farmers. Despite this wide variety of crops under production, Senegal remains a net importer of agricultural products, importing around 70% of its demand. To overcome this problem the government had promoted the production of millets in Senegal as the millers are drought-tolerant crops with highly nutritional value and relatively inexpensive crop to grow which ultimately make it accessible to small- scale farmers. The promoting schemes included the provision of subsidized seeds to the farmers, providing technical assistance and also promoted the millet based products through events like the festival of millet queen, and the festival of millet harvest. According to the research report “Senegal Millets Market Research Report, 2028," published by Actual Market Research, the market was valued at USD 40 Million in 2022 and anticipated to grow in forecast year 2028. As millet is a primary food grown in Senegal, the consumption of millet in the western and central regions is lowers than in eastern and northeast regions as the people in these regions have not traditionally consumed millet as much.

Pearl millet is the most widely consumed type of millet in Senegal. The main reason why pearl millet is more popular than other types of millet in Senegal is because it is a drought-tolerant crop. This makes it suitable for cultivation in dry areas, which are common in Senegal. Where as in the upcoming years other types of millets (Kodo millet, proso millet, barnyard millet) is anticipated to show growth. The consumption of conventional millets was generally more prevalent than organic millets, primarily due to factors such as availability, affordability, and market accessibility. Conventional millets are commonly found in regular grocery stores and markets, whereas organic millets might be limited to specialty stores or niche markets, making them less accessible to the broader population. When compared to their use in breakfast, drinks, baked goods, and direct consumption, ready-to-eat (RTE) millets are more frequently consumed. This is due to the fact that RTE millets are convenient and simple to cook, making them a popular option for individuals who are working. Millets are mostly available in traditional stores in Senegal as compared to other distributional channels. This is because traditional stores are more common in Senegal than other types of stores, and they are also more trusted by consumers. The distribution of millets in Senegal is expected to change in the future. As more people become aware of the health benefits of millet, there will be an increase in demand for millet. This will lead to an increase in the number of distribution channels for millet, including online retailers, supermarkets, and hypermarkets. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the millet market in Senegal. The pandemic has led to a number of challenges for the millet market, including decreased demand, increased prices, and challenges in transportation.
