In 2023, the imports of fodder crops and grazed biomass to the UK were estimated to be slightly below 52.51 thousand metric tons. The forecasted data from 2024 to 2028 exhibits a consistent year-on-year increase, beginning with 2.5% in 2024, and projecting a rise to approximately 57.65 thousand metric tons by 2028, reflecting an average annual growth rate, or CAGR, of around 2.4% over this five-year span.
- Continued emphasis on environmental sustainability and efficiency in agriculture could impact import demands.
- Climate change and its influence on local fodder production may increase reliance on imports.
- Fluctuations in trade policies could also play a significant role in shaping future trends in imports.
