The per capita maize market size in the United Kingdom is projected to see a steady growth from 2024 to 2028, starting at 4 kilograms in 2024 and increasing to 4.13 kilograms by 2028. This reflects a marginal year-on-year growth with variations ranging between 0.75% to 0.83%. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this forecasted five-year period stands at approximately 0.77%, showcasing a slightly ascending trend compared to 2023, where the consumption was also at 4 kilograms per capita.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential influences of dietary shifts and consumer preferences towards maize-based products.
- Impacts of UK's agricultural policy changes post-Brexit, which may affect local maize production and imports.
- Influence of climate change on domestic maize yield and supply chain stability.
