How whole & chunk fits this destination

Processing fit

In Benin, whole rhizome is the stronger fit when piece appearance supports repacking, while chunk is often easier to feed into a mill or extraction preparation step.

Piece definition

Buyers in Benin should state the mill, extraction, or repacking purpose so the piece definition supports the actual handling step rather than a generic catalogue description.

First-order risk

A buyer in Benin should approve the material in the form it will receive, because grinding a sample can hide the visual differences that matter at intake.
