"Nigeria Agribusiness Report Q4 2015" is now available at Fast Market Research

We take a mixed view of the Nigerian agribusiness sector . The cocoa industry assumes a greater importance in the country's medium - term economic future now that oil revenues can no longer be relied upon as an easy source of foreign exchange . We remain cautiously optimistic that cocoa plantations and processing facilities will continue to receive the public and private sector support needed to move forward . Poultry, dairy, sugar , rice and wheat consumption are expected to continue to depend very largely on imports to meet demand , although a much greater percentage of demand for each of these commoditie s (apart from wheat) could potentially be met by local production. Poor infrastructure, fragmentation and a lack of access to finance and expertise are among the factors that lead us to take a pessimistic view of the medium - term prospects for self-sufficiency.
