The forecast for barley domestic consumption in Canada suggests a gradual decline from 2024 to 2028, decreasing from 5.96 million metric tons in 2024 to 5.59 million metric tons in 2028. When compared to 2023, this represents a declining trend. The year-on-year variations indicate a consistent reduction, suggesting a downward trajectory.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in agricultural policies, changes in consumer preferences, and the impact of climate change on barley production. These factors may influence consumption patterns and could either mitigate or exacerbate the observed declining trend in the coming years.
