In 2023, Germany imported valued at $17.26 million in hulled, pearled, sliced, or kibbled maize. Based on the forecasted data, imports are expected to see a very slight year-on-year increase, with values reaching $17.311 million by 2028. This amounts to a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 0.2% over the forecast period from 2024 to 2028. This trend suggests a stable and marginal increase in imports.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential changes in domestic maize production, which could impact import requirements.
Shifts in consumer preferences towards more processed forms of maize, influencing import demands.
Trade policy adjustments between Germany and key maize-exporting countries.
