Global Asparagus Market - 2023-2030

Global Asparagus Market - 2023-2030


The global asparagus market reached US$ 2,129.1 million in 2022 and is projected to witness lucrative growth by reaching up to US$ XX million by 2030. The market is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period (2023-2030).

Due to its high concentration of beneficial micronutrients, asparagus has a number of health advantages. Glutathione, a substance that fights cancer, is present in asparagus. Asparagus is a rich source of rutin, which supports the health of blood vessels. Since asparagus has the highest concentration of folacin of any vegetable, eating it can help protect newborns from neural tube defects. Chromium, which aids insulin in transporting glucose into cells, is also present in asparagus. According to World Vegetable Center, asparagus production is increasing in many African countries, such as Cameroon, Tanzania, and Zambia. These countries are expanding their asparagus acreage to meet the increasing demand for the vegetable, particularly in export markets.

Market Dynamics

The increasing demand for organic asparagus

According to the Peruvian Asparagus Importer's Association, organic asparagus cultivation is still in its infancy in Peru. As the world's second-largest producer of asparagus, Peru is steadily expanding its export-driven organic cultivation. Moreover, growers who supply the United States with organic asparagus are mainly located in central Mexico. One such grower is Pampa Store, which in 2022 purchased 402 ha of land in Mexico's northeastern region, which borders the American state of Texas. The Los Angeles Wholesale Produce Market in February 2022 charged USD 66.41–68.04 for a case of organic asparagus weighing 11 pounds and produced in Mexico, or roughly USD 6.0 per pound wholesale price, according to the Organic Produce Network which can be attributed to the price of the vegetable being sold year-round on market shelves.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

According to a report by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the COVID-19 pandemic caused disruptions in global supply chains, which affected the availability of asparagus in some regions. The report notes that the restrictions on international trade and transportation caused by the pandemic made it difficult for some farmers to export their crops. On the other hand, according to data from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the COVID-19 pandemic led to a shift in demand for asparagus in the United States. In 2020, there was an increase in demand for fresh asparagus as more consumers cooked at home due to restaurant closures and social distancing measures. The USDA also notes that demand for canned and frozen asparagus decreased due to the closure of many food service establishments.

Segment Analysis

The global asparagus market is segmented based on type, variety, application, distribution channel and region.

Fresh asparagus segment accounted for the highest share of the global asparaguss market

The fresh asparagus segment held a dominant position in the global asparagus market with approximately 42% in 2022 due to its high preference over canned and frozen counterparts. While the shelf life of fresh asparagus can be extended through various methods such as pickling or adding preservatives, it remains a popular vegetable for ready-to-eat foods, including mixed vegetables and chicken preparations. The growing demand for fresh asparagus in pickled and brine forms, soups, and sauces is anticipated to fuel revenue growth of the fresh asparagus segment in the global market. These developments indicate a positive trend for the consumption of fresh asparagus in various food products.

Geographical Analysis

Europe holds the major share in the global asparagus market

According to the Eurostat database, the European Union (EU) produced 436,940 tons of asparagus in 2022, with the largest producers being Spain, Germany, and Greece. Spain alone accounted for 36% of the total EU production. In terms of consumption, the latest available data from Eurostat shows that in 2021, the EU consumed 252,000 tons of asparagus, with Germany, France, and the United Kingdom being the largest consumers. Asparagus is a popular vegetable in Europe, and its consumption is likely to continue to grow in the coming years due to increasing demand for healthy and organic foods. However, weather conditions and trade policies can affect asparagus production and supply in Europe.
