The import of forage plant seeds for sowing to Singapore saw a significant fluctuation between 2013 and 2023. In 2013, imports were relatively high but saw a sharp decline in the following years, bottoming out in 2017 before experiencing a steep rebound in 2018. The years between 2019 and 2023 indicate a stabilizing trend, albeit with minimal year-on-year declines. Specifically, the value stood at $300.47 thousand in 2023. From 2024 onwards, the forecasted data show a gradual decline, projecting a 0.91% average year-on-year decrease leading to 2028.
Future trends to watch for:
- Enhancements in local forage plant cultivation impacting import volumes.
- Global climate conditions affecting seed production and consequently import reliance.
- Trade policy changes that could influence import tariffs and agreements.
