The import of dried shelled urd, mung, black, or green gram beans to Italy is projected to decrease steadily from 2024 through 2028. Starting at 1.0188 million kilograms in 2024, the volume is expected to drop to 0.8437 million kilograms by 2028. Given that the 2023 import volume was higher than these forecasted figures, Italy appears to be importing fewer of these legumes over the next five years. The year-on-year percentage decrease over the last two years is a clear indicator of a declining trend.
Key Trends to Watch for:
- Shift in consumer preferences towards these legumes or other alternatives.
- Impact of trade policies and tariffs affecting import volumes.
- Economic factors influencing Italy's food import strategies.
