Between 2024 and 2028, the forecast for the direct material input of biomass for food and feed in the UK shows a steady increase from 184.99 million metric tons to 187.25 million metric tons. This represents a slight growth with year-on-year increases averaging approximately 0.32%. These figures indicate a stable upward trend in biomass inputs, potentially driven by consistent demand in the food and feed sectors.

Looking ahead, key trends to monitor will include technological advancements in biomass processing, government policies regarding sustainable agriculture, and potential shifts in consumer preferences towards more sustainable and renewable food sources. These factors could influence future growth rates and overall biomass usage.
