About groundnut prices in Nigeria
Groundnut — Gyada in Hausa, Epa in Yoruba, Ahụekere in Igbo — is usually traded by the 50kg bag. The same 50kg bag can cost very different amounts in a producing state and in a big consumer market like Lagos, and prices move with the harvest calendar, transport costs and festive-season demand. Groundnut is also exported, so local prices follow international demand — see export prices.
Before you buy or sell: compare today's markets above, check the price heatmap, and set a price alert so Agrios tells you when groundnut reaches your target.
