  • How can the peanut industry be revived?
  • The peanut industry can be revived by targeting the international snack market, which is lucrative enough to pay for investments in aflatoxin management. Rejected peanuts can be exported to China for oil production or processed locally in refined peanut oil for the local market by existing vegetable oil producers.
  • Is there peanut oil production in Africa?
  • Africa does not have significant peanut oil production for the local or international market, with the exception of Senegal. There is no real production of peanut oil in Africa. Peanuts are a staple used for sauces and snacks in Africa, but most Africans are unaware of aflatoxin and consume contaminated peanuts unwittingly.
  • Is aflatoxin the backbone of the African peanut industry?
  • Although peanut oil production can provide a cost recovery for high aflatoxin peanuts in Africa, the margins on peanut oil production are not high enough for it to be the backbone of the peanut industry. Aflatoxin continues to pose a significant challenge to the African peanut industry.
  • How are peanuts produced in Africa?
  • In Africa, peanuts are generally harvested, dried, and shelled on a farm. They are then sold either to traders or processors, or directly onto the village market. Harvested peanuts are cleaned and sorted for further processing according to external appearance, size, and shape. The best peanuts could be exported for the EU or US snack markets.
