Horticultural Marketing and Export in Senegal: Constraints, Opportunities and Policy Issues. Agricultural Marketing Improvement Strategies Project

摘要

The report provides an overview of Senegal's horticultural production, marketing, and exports and identifies constraints to expansion - notably, the lack of supportive policies and incentive schemes. It describes trends in exports to Western European markets in terms of specific crops and countries and summarizes the opinions of European importers regarding Senegalese horticulural products. The report then assesses the potential for expanding exports to alternative markets, including West Africa and the United States. Final sections explore the possibility of developing joint ventures to promote Senegalese horticultural exports, identify information gaps, and present recommendations for a horticultural subsector action plan.
