The forecast for fresh spinach consumption in Canada from 2024 to 2028 shows a decreasing trend. This is a decline from an estimated 30.2 thousand metric tons in 2024 to 26.45 thousand metric tons in 2028. Comparatively, in 2023, fresh spinach consumption stood at approximately 31 thousand metric tons.

- Impacts of agricultural practices and climate change on spinach production.
- Influence of trade policies and import-export dynamics affecting supply chains and market stability.
