Agriculture is a major sector of the economy in Equatorial Guinea. Farming accounts for approximately 2% of GDP as it contributes little to the export earnings of the country.^[1] In 2022, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations held its Africa regional conference in Malabo.^[2] One popular crop is Tabernanthe iboga which is used for traditional tribal medicine.^[3] The island of Bioko has a greater variety of tropical vegetation, including mangroves than the mainland.^[4]

The Government of Equatorial Guinea has used agriculture as a way to promote economic diversity.^[5] In 2021, crop production index for Equatorial Guinea was 102.2 index, growing at an average annual rate of 1.23%.^[6]
