In 2023, the distribution of tangerines and mandarins in Japan stood at 944.5 thousand metric tons. From the forecasted data for 2024 to 2028, there is an observable declining trend in distribution, with a year-on-year decrease. The year-over-year reduction percentages reflect this downward trajectory, leading to a decline from 929.73 thousand metric tons in 2024 to an anticipated 867.2 thousand metric tons in 2028.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential shifts in consumer preferences and dietary trends affecting demand.
- Import-export dynamics altered by trade policies or agreements in the region.
- Impact of climate change on local production and harvesting conditions.
