The forecast for primary oilseeds yield in Japan from 2024 to 2028 indicates a consistent decline, with yields decreasing from 2.77 to 2.65 thousand hectograms per hectare. This reflects a year-on-year decrease of approximately 1.1% annually over the period. The yields were already showing a gradual decline prior to 2024, emphasizing a continued downward trend in productivity.
Future trends to watch for:
- Technological innovations in farming to enhance productivity and counteract declining yields.
- Potential policy changes or investments in agricultural R&D to address productivity issues.
- Impact of climate change and its mitigation on agricultural outputs, particularly oilseeds.
