The import of starch wheat to Japan is expected to show a steady increase from 23.36 thousand kilograms in 2024 to 27.94 thousand kilograms by 2028. In comparison, the import value for 2023 was unavailable, making it difficult to calculate precise year-on-year variations from 2023 onwards. However, for the forecast period of 2024 to 2028, there is an evident upward trend with an average annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years illustrating consistent market demand.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential changes in domestic wheat production that may affect import levels.
- Trade policy adjustments with major wheat-exporting countries.
- Shifts in consumer dietary preferences and their impact on starch products.
- Technological advancements in wheat processing and starch production.
