According to Silot, two key factors may be contributing to the current price surge. The first is unfavorable weather conditions in Cambodia, which could delay harvesting and potentially reduce production if crops are damaged. The second factor involves policy changes in several West African countries, where governments are reportedly considering or implementing restrictions on raw cashew exports in order to strengthen domestic processing industries and capture greater value from the crop.

Silot Uon, chairman of CAC, highlighted the potential value of cashew by-products, particularly Cashew Nut Shell Liquid (CNSL), which is widely used for industrial purposes. Uon explained that CNSL could also play a role in livestock production, noting that when mixed with animal feed, it may increase dairy cow milk production by around 20 percent and reduce methane emissions from livestock burping by up to 60 percent, helping mitigate agricultural impacts on the environme
