UNR Agro Allied Ltd: Pioneering Groundnut Production in Nigeria

Welcome to the world of groundnut production in Nigeria, proudly presented by UNR Agro Allied Ltd. As the third-largest producer of peanuts globally and the largest in Africa, Nigeria has a rich history and a bright future in groundnut cultivation.

Nigeria’s Groundnut Production: A Blend of Tradition and Innovation

Nigeria’s groundnut production has evolved significantly over the years. Historically known for the iconic groundnut pyramids in Kano, Nigeria was once a leading exporter. Today, the country produces around 3 million metric tons annually, mainly for domestic consumption. The northern states of Nigeria, including Kano, Kaduna, Taraba, Bauchi, Bornu, and Adamawa, are the heartlands of groundnut production, accounting for up to 88% of the country’s output.

Quality and Industrial Uses of Nigerian Groundnuts

Nigerian groundnuts, known for their high oil content and rich flavor, are an essential part of local cuisine and have numerous industrial applications. From cooking oil to cosmetics, groundnuts play a versatile role. The protein-rich cake left after oil extraction is a valuable resource for animal feed and human consumption.

Challenges and Opportunities in Groundnut Export

While Nigeria’s groundnut industry has immense potential, challenges such as quality control and market volatility exist. Efforts are underway to improve groundnut quality through better farming practices and government initiatives. The export market remains an area of untapped potential, with opportunities for significant economic returns.
