The bulk of Kenyan macadamia is produced by about 200,000 smallholder farmers. Kenya’s macadamia production increased rapidly during the last decade, from around 11,000 tons’ nut-in-shell (NIS) production in 2009 to 42,500 tons in 2018. Kenya’s Agriculture and Food Authority (AFA) estimates that, with increased acreage under the crop, production will reach 60,000 tons NIS by 2022. That would constitute an increase of around 40 percent from the production achieved in 2018.
