The forecast for the import of live horses, excluding pure-bred breeding horses, to France indicates a steep decline from 2024 to 2028. The import value is projected to drop from $4.5918 million in 2024 to $1.1915 million by 2028. This decline reflects a significant year-on-year reduction over the period, with the most noticeable decrease expected between 2027 and 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years highlights a consistent downturn in the market, pointing to a waning demand or possible shifts in trade dynamics.

Future trends to monitor include:

Changes in France's domestic horse industry that could affect import demand.
Potential trade agreements or policy changes impacting international horse trade.
Shifts in global equestrian sports and leisure activities possibly influencing export and import patterns.
