    According to the official website of “Invest Cameroon”, the basic food security research report recently released by the “Corporate Upgrade Office (le Bureau de mise à niveau des entreprises BMN)” of Cameroon pointed out that 70% of Cameroon’s self-produced rice is exported to neighboring Nigeria.
    There are two main reasons: First, the high domestic transportation costs in Cameroon have led to poor sales of self-produced rice in the domestic market, forcing the Ministry of Commerce of Cameroon to repeatedly interrupt sales promotion activities in the southern region
    .

    Second, the rice-producing area of ​​Cameroon is close to Nigeria, and the country's rice hulling capacity is seriously insufficient
    .
    A large number of Cameroon rice is exported to Nigeria, which is also related to the geographical location of Cameroon rice-producing areas in Central and West Africa

    The rice cultivation in the two regions accounts for 84% of the country.
    Among them, the Far North Region where Semry is located accounts for 44%.
