The import of starches, excluding wheat, maize, potato, and manioc to Japan, shows a stable upward trend from 2024 to 2028. The forecast indicates a consistent annual increase in volume, starting at 19.541 million kilograms in 2024 and reaching 20.039 million kilograms by 2028. Compared to 2023, this reflects modest year-on-year growth, with the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) expected to show a steady increment over the five-year period.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential shifts in domestic production levels that might affect import demand.
- Changes in global supply chains that could influence import costs and availability.
- Developments in food industry demand for alternative starches that could drive the import volume.
