The import of dormant bulbs, tubers, corms, crowns, and rhizomes to Japan is forecasted to decrease steadily from 2024 to 2028. The values project a decline from 256.06 million USD in 2024 to 217.79 million USD in 2028. This continuous reduction indicates a year-on-year decrease in imports, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflecting a declining trend. In 2023, the imports stood at an actual value not specified in the data, implying that the downturn is a continuation of recent patterns.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in domestic cultivation practices, changes in consumer demand for ornamental plants, and trade policy adjustments that might impact import dynamics. Environmental considerations and technological advancements in horticulture could also influence future import needs.
