From 2024 to 2028, the UK is forecasted to see a decline in the import volumes of dormant bulbs, tubers, corms, crowns, and rhizomes. Starting at 12.548 million kilograms in 2024, this volume is expected to decrease progressively each year, reaching 11.43 million kilograms by 2028. Comparing with the 2023 data, this decline represents a consistent year-on-year decrease, signaling a shrinking demand or possible replacement by domestic or alternative sources. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for this period indicates a negative trend in import volumes.
Future trends to watch include shifts in consumer preferences towards sustainable and locally sourced products, which could impact the demand for imports. Additionally, any regulatory changes concerning agricultural imports post-Brexit may further influence this trend.
