In 2023, France led European chemical and fertiliser mineral exports, totaling 1.2105 billion kilograms. Compared to the previous year, France saw a slight growth of 0.98%. The Netherlands, Spain, Germany, and Italy formed the subsequent top five, though each experienced declines, notably Germany and Italy both over 9%. Significant growth was observed in Slovenia (10.57%), Luxembourg (11.31%), and Estonia (22.69%). Conversely, Greece, Hungary, and Poland faced the steepest declines, each over 25%. Portugal and several Eastern European countries also demonstrated marked decreases.
Future trends to watch in European exports of chemical and fertiliser minerals include:
- Potential recovery for declining countries like Poland and Greece.
- Increased competitiveness from emerging exporters like Slovenia and Estonia.
- Impact of environmental regulations on production and export volumes.
- Market shifts due to changing global demand in agricultural sectors.
