The import of maize to Germany is forecasted to increase from $1.0444 billion in 2024 to $1.1269 billion by 2028, indicating a steady upward trend. Compared to the 2023 value, this signifies a consistent upward trajectory in import value. The annual growth rates from 2024 onwards are around 2%, demonstrating a modest but stable increase in the maize import market. The cumulative average growth rate (CAGR) over the 5-year forecast period leads to a consistent increase in expenditure.
Future trends to watch for include possible impacts of climate change on maize production, potential shifts in trade policies affecting import duties, and Germany's domestic demand fluctuations influenced by dietary trends and industrial use. Monitoring these variables will be crucial for understanding long-term import dynamics.
