In 2023, the import of parts for grain, seed, and dry legumes processing equipment to China stood at 78.08 thousand kilograms. The data from 2024 to 2028 forecasts a steady decline each year: from 66.95 in 2024; to 55.04 in 2025; 43.36 in 2026; 31.92 in 2027; and 20.71 in 2028. Notably, the year-on-year variation shows a continued annual decrease ranging from -17% to -35% over these forecasted years, reflecting diminishing demand or possible local manufacturing improvements. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period indicates an average annual decline of approximately -21%.
Future trends to watch for include:
- The potential impact of domestic production capacities improving to meet local demand.
- Policy changes in China affecting import regulations or incentivizing local sourcing.
- Technological advancements that may alter the need for such imports.
- Economic factors, including cost considerations, affecting import decisions.
- Shifts in global trade dynamics, which could influence sourcing decisions and trends.
