The projected data for swine meat consumption per capita in the US sets the expectation for a gradual yet steady increase from 29.76 kg in 2024 to 30.91 kg in 2028. In 2023, the consumption value stood at 29.50 kg, marking a consistent upward trend through the forecast period. The year-on-year growth rates show marginal increases, reflecting an annual compounded average growth rate (CAGR) of just under 1% over this five-year span.
Future trends to watch include:
- Potential impacts of dietary shifts toward plant-based alternatives on pork consumption.
- Economic factors affecting disposable income and, consequently, meat consumption habits.
- Trade policies that could alter supply dynamics and thus influence market prices and consumption patterns.
