Top Importers of Wheat or Meslin Flour

In 2023, Afghanistan was the top importer of wheat or meslin flour, with significant imports totaling over $664 million, followed by the Netherlands, United States, France, and Brazil. Year-on-year growth has varied greatly among these countries, indicating shifts in demand and economic conditions. Over five years, the compound annual growth rate has shown a mixed pattern, with some countries experiencing robust growth and others facing stagnation or decline.

For future trends, watch for geopolitical changes that could impact trade routes and tariffs, technological advancements in agriculture that may affect supply, and potential shifts in consumer demand for wheat-based products, especially in emerging markets with rising populations and changing diets.
