Prices of cowpea and beans in Nigeria have dropped significantly in 2025, with a 100kg bag now selling for between N80,000 and N120,000, down from a peak of N240,000 in 2024.
The President of Cowpea and Beans Farmers, Processors and Marketers Association of Nigeria (C&BFPMAN), Mr. Kabir Shuaibu, disclosed this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).
He attributed the price crash to improved harvests and favourable cultivation conditions.
