October Palm Oil Production Update and Cashew Operation Update
Dekel Agri-Vision Plc (AIM: DKL), the West African agriculture company focused on building a portfolio of sustainable and diversified projects, provides an October production update for its Ayenouan palm oil project in Côte d’Ivoire (‘Palm Oil Operation’) and commentary on monthly production at the cashew processing plant at Tiebissou, Côte d’Ivoire (the ‘Cashew Operation’).
Key Performance Metrics: October 2026 vs. October 2025
- Crude Palm Oil (CPO) Production: CPO production increased by 30.2% in October 2026 compared to October 2025, with FFB processed up 31.3%, as the Palm Oil Operation moved out of its seasonal low period. CPO sales volumes increased by 41.6% to 1,594 tonnes, including sales from inventory built up during Q3 2026. CPO continues to be sold into the domestic market, where demand remains strong. The CPO extraction rate remained broadly stable at 19.4% (October 2025: 19.5%).
- CPO Sales Prices: CPO selling prices averaged €971 per tonne during the month, 3.6% lower than the particularly strong October 2025 (€1,007 per tonne) but 25.3% higher than October 2024 (€775 per tonne) and remain above long-term historical averages.
- Palm Kernel Oil (PKO) Production, Sales and Prices: PKO production increased by 73.8% to 146 tonnes and PKO sales volumes increased by 151.2% to 108 tonnes compared to October 2025. PKO sales prices increased by 1.9% to €1,319 per tonne.

Cashew Operation: Raw Cashew Nut (RCN) Processing: The Cashew Operation continued its positive momentum in October 2026, following its strongest quarter to date in Q3 2026. In addition:
- As announced on 30 October 2026, and subject to completion of the Fundraising, the Company plans to increase RCN processing capacity at Tiebissou by approximately 50%, from c.30 to c.45 tonnes per day, during the 2027 cashew season, with the additional capacity focused on unpeeled cashews.
- Detailed quarterly production and sales data for the Cashew Operation will be reported in January 2027.
