The per capita pulse consumption in Brazil is projected to gradually decline from 13 kilograms in 2024 to 12.61 kilograms in 2028. In 2023, consumption stood at approximately 13.1 kilograms. The year-on-year percentage decline is minor but consistent, averaging around a 0.75% reduction annually over the forecast period. Analyzing the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years reveals a steady decrease, reflecting shifting dietary preferences or possible changes in pulse availability or pricing dynamics.
Future trends to watch include economic factors affecting consumer purchasing power, potential policy changes promoting pulse consumption, and international trade developments impacting pulse imports and exports. Additionally, sustainability and health awareness trends could influence consumption patterns, potentially stabilizing or reversing the current decline.
