The import volume of peas in Japan was previously 25.0 thousand metric tons in 2023. The forecast shows a consistent upward trend from 2024 to 2028, starting at 26.0 thousand metric tons and peaking at 28.0 thousand metric tons by the end of the period. This represents a gradual increase with key percentage variations observable year-on-year. The trends indicate a cumulative average growth rate (CAGR) over the five years, suggesting a steady, albeit modest, increase in the import volume of peas.
Key future trends to watch for include:
- Potential changes in dietary trends and consumer preferences towards more plant-based foods, impacting pea imports.
- Trade policies and agreements affecting the availability and pricing of imported peas.
- The advancement of domestic pea production possibly altering the import dependency in Japan.
