In 2024, Zambia`s commercial seeds import market continued to show significant growth, with a high CAGR of 13.8% from 2020 to 2024. The top exporting countries to Zambia included South Africa, Peru, Israel, India, and China. Despite the strong growth, the market remained relatively competitive with a low Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) concentration in 2024. The impressive growth rate of 35.81% from 2023 to 2024 indicates a surge in demand for commercial seeds in Zambia, presenting opportunities for both domestic and international seed suppliers.
