The forecast for palm oil losses in Japan remains constant at 5.0 thousand metric tons annually from 2024 through 2028. This stability indicates no significant year-on-year variation in production losses from prior levels observed in 2023. Given the absence of changes in any of the years, the overall Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over this five-year period remains zero.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential regulatory changes or shifts in import policies affecting palm oil trade.
- The emergence of sustainable practices that could impact supply and demand dynamics.
- Fluctuations in global palm oil prices that might influence Japan's import levels and losses.
