The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the forecast period is 2.5%, indicating a consistent upward trend driven by rising demand and possibly local supply constraints.
Future trends to watch include potential impacts of climatic changes on honey production, shifts in consumer preferences towards organic or specific origin honeys, and trade policy changes that could impact import dynamics or costs. Monitoring these could provide valuable insights into future import behavior.
