The demand for sunflower seeds in France is anticipated to decline gradually from 2024 to 2028, starting at 1.08 million metric tons in 2024 and decreasing to 0.999 million metric tons by 2028. In 2023, the demand stood at a higher value than the projected 2024 demand, indicating a decreasing trend.
The year-on-year variation shows a steady decline, with average demand shrinking each consecutive year by approximately 1.9%. Over the five-year period, the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) reveals a decrease in demand at an average annual rate, showing a consistently negative trajectory for sunflower seed consumption in France.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in dietary habits, increased competition from other oilseeds, and market changes due to agricultural policies or climatic factors. Monitoring these factors will be crucial for anticipating further changes in demand.
