The latest data show that in the first five months of 2023, Ivorian rubber exports totaled 573,675 tons, an increase of 11.9% compared to the 512,595 tons in the same period in 2022.
Côte d'Ivoire is an important producer of natural rubber in Africa. In recent years, Côte d'Ivoire's rubber exports have increased year after year, as farmers are driven by stable income to switch their sowing crops from cocoa to rubber.
