Nigeria's Cassava Hub: Opportunities in Benue State
As a leading manufacturer of cassava processing equipment, Henan Jinrui collaborates extensively with farmers and processors throughout Nigeria. A frequent topic that comes up in our discussions is: “Which state leads the nation in cassava cultivation?” Knowing the answer helps identify key hubs of agricultural activity and areas ripe for investment in processing infrastructure.
The clear frontrunner in cassava production within Nigeria is Benue State. Widely known as the “Food Basket of the Nation,” Benue boasts rich agricultural lands and a suitable climate that support large-scale cassava farming. The state regularly records the highest annual yields, contributing a major share of the country’s total cassava supply.

Huge Cassava Supply |
That said, cassava is a vital crop across many regions of Nigeria. In addition to Benue, several other states—including Kogi, Taraba, Delta, Ondo, and Cross River—also rank as significant producers. Together, they help maintain Nigeria’s status as the global leader in cassava output.
Despite Nigeria’s strong production capacity, the sector still faces considerable challenges, particularly with post-harvest losses and limited intermediate processing. A large portion of the cassava harvested in Benue and other key states is not converted into stable, high-value products. This gap represents a major opportunity for increased profitability—and it’s exactly where our technical expertise can make a difference.
Transitioning from raw cassava farming to value-added processing is the crucial step toward generating greater income for farmers and business owners. This means moving beyond selling fresh tubers to supplying high-demand derivatives such as High-Quality Cassava Flour (HQCF), starch, garri, chips, and industrial products like ethanol.
