The forecasted volume of pulses per capita in Japan from 2024 to 2028 remains stable at 1.43 kilograms annually. Given the data, this suggests a stagnation in the consumption rate of pulses compared to 2023. In 2023, the volume was likely similar, showing no significant year-on-year variation.

Future trends to watch for:

Potential shifts in dietary trends that could increase pulse consumption, given their health benefits.
Influence of global trade policies on pulse availability and price, potentially impacting consumption.
Environmental considerations that might encourage sustainable pulse farming, affecting local supply.
