The import of specific lumber types to Italy shows a declining trend from 78.15 thousand cubic meters in 2024 to 69.99 thousand cubic meters by 2028. This represents a reduction over the years, with a year-on-year decrease of approximately 2.7%. Taking into account the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) from 2024 to 2028, the average annual decrease is around 2.7%.
