Changes in the sub-Saharan Africa maize trade in the 2022/23 marketing year.

The countries that dominated maize supplies, trailing after South Africa in the 2021/22 season, could fall behind due to an expected reduction in production. These developments are in a season when the demand for maize in sub-Saharan import-reliant countries could remain strong. A case in point is Kenya, where the 2022/23 maize import needs are estimated at 700 000 tonnes, which is a significant volume, albeit down by 13% from the previous season, as local production improved marginally.
