Côte d'Ivoire's estimated postharvest losses in tonnes for rice ranged from 72,236 tonnes in 2007 to 85,289 tonnes in 2006. The estimated loss percentages fluctuated between 11.9% and 11.9%. The largest losses in USD were estimated to have occurred in 2013 with a value of over 75 million USD, equivalent to 1.2% of national agricultural GDP.
Within the value chain, the majority of the postharvest rice loss is estimated to be happening at Harvesting/field drying. In Côte d'Ivoire, on average the highest quantity of rice production occurs in Savanes. Regarding nutritional losses, the number of people whose annual energy (kcal) dietary requirements could have been met with the estimated rice lost postharvest ranged from 300,709 people in 2007 to 355,044 people in 2006.
