The demand for beans in the US is projected to experience modest growth from 2024 to 2028. The data indicates a slight increase each year, moving from 984.0 thousand metric tons in 2024 and 2025 to 987.0 thousand metric tons by 2028. This reflects a stable market, with an average year-on-year growth of approximately 0.25%. With no significant fluctuations, the compound annual growth rate over this five-year period is minimal.

Future trends to watch for include:

Changing consumer preferences towards healthier, plant-based diets could influence an increase in demand.
Environmental factors affecting crop yields, which could impact supply and prices.
Policy changes concerning agriculture and imports that may impact the domestic beans market.
