In 2023, France's imports of roots and tubers stood at an estimated 1.11 million metric tons. The forecast from 2024 through 2028 shows a steady increment, climbing from 1.12 to 1.16 million metric tons. This represents a consistent year-on-year increase of approximately 0.89% annually. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years is expected to be around 0.89%, indicating a stable but modest growth trend in the importation of these commodities.
Future trends to watch for include potential changes in agricultural policy in France or key exporting countries, shifts in consumer preferences towards plant-based diets, and the impact of climate change on root and tuber production and supply chains. Innovations in food technology and global trade agreements may also influence import patterns in the coming years.
