The pulses production in Japan is forecasted to decline from 2024 to 2028, starting at 73.4 thousand metric tons in 2024 and decreasing steadily to 59.3 thousand metric tons by 2028. This represents a significant downward trend, with a consistent year-on-year reduction observed throughout the period. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years shows a negative average variation, indicating a shrinking production trend in the sector.
Future trends to watch for:
- Continued decline due to potential demographic changes and land-use shifts.
- Impact of climate change on agriculture, potentially affecting crop yields.
- Potential policy interventions to stimulate domestic production and reverse the trend.
