Algeria’s Cucumber Market Plummets After Record High in 2023
Algeria’s cucumber and gherkin market witnessed a sharp decrease in 2024 following a record high in the preceding year. The sector had experienced steady growth over the past decade, but recent data indicates a clear reduction in both production and yield. Despite this, long-term trends still suggest rising consumption and output over time.
Between 2012 and 2024, Algeria’s cucumber and gherkin production grew at an average annual rate of X%. Consumption also climbed steadily, increasing by X% each year on average. By 2024, demand had risen by X% compared to 2019 levels.
The 2024 figures underscore a challenging year for Algeria’s cucumber and gherkin industry. Production, yield, and market value all contracted, reversing earlier advances. However, the long-term growth in consumption and output suggests the sector still holds potential for recovery in the coming years.
