From 2024 to 2028, India's sunflower production is forecasted to witness a sharp decline from 125.0 to 19.0 thousand metric tons. The year-on-year decrease between 2024 and 2025 is substantial, and a similar trend is expected in subsequent years, leading to a negative CAGR over the five-year period. In 2023, sunflower production stood at 150.0 thousand metric tons, indicating a significant downturn.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Impact of climate change on agricultural yields.
- Market dynamics influencing crop planting decisions.
- Technological advancements in agriculture that could mitigate yield reductions.
- Policy and governmental support for oilseed crop production.
