The forecast import of dormant bulbs, tubers, corms, crowns, and rhizomes to Japan demonstrates a declining trend from 2024 to 2028, starting at 12.049 million kilograms in 2024 and decreasing annually to 9.6063 million kilograms by 2028. Compared to 2023's actual data, which stood at approximately 12.7 million kilograms, the imports are predicted to decline steadily. This steady decrease implies a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) reflecting a consistent reduction year-on-year into 2028.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Changes in domestic production versus import reliance, which may influence Japan's import strategy.
- Global market shifts in bulb supply and demand that could impact import volumes and Japan's import pricing.
- Ecological policies or sustainability efforts influencing agricultural importation choices and consumption patterns in Japan.
