In 2023, the UK's import of fresh or chilled carrots and turnips stood at 40.7 million kilograms. From 2024 to 2028, a decreasing trend is anticipated, with imports forecasted to decline from 40.002 million kilograms to 37.283 million kilograms. This reflects a consistent annual percentage decrease, averaging around 1.7% over these years. The compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) between 2024 and 2028 is expected to be approximately -1.6%.

Potential future trends to monitor include:

Impact of domestic agricultural policies aiming to boost local production.
Changes in consumer preferences toward locally sourced produce influencing import demand.
Trade and tariff policies post-Brexit that may affect import volumes.
Advancements in agricultural technology affecting productivity domestically and internationally.
Environmental factors impacting the supply chain and harvests in exporting countries.
