The forecast for apple production in the US from 2024 to 2028 indicates a gradual decline in volume, starting from 4.53 million metric tons in 2024 to 4.36 million metric tons by 2028. In 2023, the actual production was approximately equivalent to 4.53 million metric tons, setting a benchmark for future assessments.
Year-on-year variations reveal a consistent decrease each year: -0.88% in 2025, -1.11% in 2026, -0.9% in 2027, and -0.91% in 2028. The cumulative annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period is reflective of a modest downward trend in apple production.
Future trends to watch include potential impacts from climate change, shifts in domestic and international demand, and technological advancements in agriculture which could mitigate the decline or introduce new productivity factors.
