The forecast for spices residuals in Brazil indicates a declining trend from 2024 to 2028, with values decreasing from -20,000 Metric Tons in 2024 to -22,000 Metric Tons in 2028. As of 2023, the level was slightly higher, affecting the annual percentage change wherein the quantities remain largely constant initially before amplifying deterioration by 2028. Over these five years, the compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) underscores a negative trend, reflecting persistent challenges in spices waste management.
Future trends worth monitoring include advancements in waste reduction technology and policy implementations focused on reducing post-harvest losses. These could counteract the negative trajectory observed and improve resource efficiency within Brazil’s spices sector.
