Forecasts for the period between 2024 and 2028 suggest a consistent decrease in import values, with figures dropping from $402.73K in 2024 to $219.11K in 2028. This represents a significant cumulative average growth rate (CAGR) of decline over the forecasted period. Particularly, the year-on-year decline is visible, averaging around 11% to 13% annually.
