Nigerian cattle prices have risen over 25% in the past year, with a cow now selling for N75,000 to N80,000 compared with N45,000 to N50,000 a year earlier. Boko Haram violence, desertification and transport costs are constraining supply.
Tight cattle supply and high costs in Nigeria sustain regional meat prices, though the local market has limited direct effect on global feed or livestock futures.
