The forecast for the import of chicory plants, bulbs, tubers, and corms into Japan indicates a declining trend from 2024 through 2028. Starting at 2.0187 million in 2024, imports are expected to decrease annually, reaching a value of 0.81632 million by 2028. Comparing the percentage variation year-on-year, substantial declines are evident, with an annual average decrease (CAGR) observed over this forecast period.
Future trends to watch for include potential changes in Japan's domestic agricultural policies, shifts in consumer preferences towards locally grown produce, and fluctuations in global trading conditions that could impact the demand and import of these products. Keeping an eye on technological advancements in cultivation and transportation could also influence the chicory supply chain dynamics.
