The US buckwheat production is projected to increase steadily from 86.45 thousand metric tons in 2024 to 88.26 thousand metric tons in 2028. Considering previous trends, the data is consistent with a continued, albeit slow, growth pattern. Production in 2023 served as a baseline for these projections, showing a sustained increase with year-on-year growth remaining marginally above half a percentage point. Over the five-year period from 2023 to 2028, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is expected to exhibit a similarly restrained upward trend.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Fluctuations in demand influenced by the health food market and gluten-free product popularity.
- Changes in climate conditions impacting agricultural yields.
- Potential technological advancements in farming practices enhancing productivity.
- Trade policies affecting import-export dynamics and domestic production incentives.
