Macadamia Prices in Kenya Decrease by 25% Since the Start of the Second 2022 Season

Kenya’s second season of macadamia nuts started in September with suppliers largely sourcing from the Nyeri and Muranga counties of the Central Kenya region. Sourcing is very competitive due to high demand but prices have reduced compared to offseason sourcing prices. Before the season, aggregators were sourcing at as high as USD 20/kg but prices have decreased by 25% to USD 15/kg for raw nuts in W39.
