The per capita consumption of lemons and limes in China is forecasted to see a gradual increase from 1.49 kilograms in 2024 to 1.53 kilograms by 2028. This steady growth indicates a year-on-year increase of approximately 0.67% based on the average increments. In comparison to 2023, where consumption was slightly lower, this upward trend reflects a growing demand for citrus fruits. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) for the forecast period is approximately 0.5%.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in consumer preferences toward health-oriented diets, which may further boost citrus fruit consumption. Additionally, changes in agricultural practices or policies may impact supply dynamics, influencing market size and per capita consumption.
