The forecast for the import of rape or colza seed oilcake and other solid residues to France from 2024 to 2028 indicates a gradual decline in value, beginning at $76.491 million in 2024 and decreasing to $66.664 million in 2028. This trend represents a consistent year-on-year decrease, averaging approximately 3% annually over this period. The import value in 2023 was higher than in subsequent years, indicating a peak before the projected decline.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential impacts of sustainability policies influencing agricultural imports.
- The effect of global price fluctuations in crude oil impacting oilseed byproducts.
- Changes in demand patterns due to shifting dietary trends or local alternative sourcing.
