The forecast for fresh or chilled trout imports to India shows a slight decline over the years from 2024 to 2028, with values decreasing from 19.45 to 18.99 thousand US dollars. Given the lack of data from 2023, assuming a stable past trend, this suggests a modest decline year-on-year. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) indicates a gradual reduction in imports, potentially due to increased domestic production or shifting consumer preferences.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Changes in consumer demand for imported seafood
- Emerging local aquaculture that may substitute imports
- Trade policy alterations and tariffs affecting import costs
