The import of crude sunflower-seed or safflower oil to Germany is expected to rise steadily from 2024 to 2028. This forecast suggests an incremental increase in import values year-on-year, marking a consistent growth pattern. Without specific historical data from 2023, one assumes a continuous upward trend which aligns with historical import growth patterns seen in the sector.
Future trends to watch include:
- The impact of geopolitical factors on supply and pricing.
- Changes in dietary preferences towards plant-based oils in Europe.
- The potential influence of agricultural policies and trade agreements on import dynamics.
- Technological advancements in oil extraction and transportation that may affect costs.
