The import of methionine to India is forecasted to steadily increase from 2024 to 2028, with values rising from 52.907 million kilograms in 2024 to 60.849 million kilograms in 2028. Compared to 2023, where imports stood at an estimated 51 million kilograms, this indicates a consistent annual growth trend. Year-on-year growth rates reveal a stable increase of approximately 3.9% from 2024 to 2025, steadily reaching around 3.3% by 2028. The five-year compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) is projected to be approximately 3.6%.
Future trends to watch for include the potential impact of global supply chain fluctuations and India's domestic production capabilities influencing import patterns. Additionally, shifts in dietary preferences and livestock industry growth could alter methionine demand, impacting import volumes.
