The European spelt and wheat harvested area highlights France as the largest contributor with 4.99 million hectares, followed by Germany and Poland. Year-on-year trends revealed declines in countries like France, Germany, and Spain with Greece facing a significant decrease. In contrast, Latvia and Finland experienced considerable growth. Over a five-year period, the compound annual growth rates indicate Latvia and Sweden outperformed, while countries like Bosnia showed declines.
Future trends to monitor include potential crop area expansion in countries displaying recent growth, such as Lithuania and Latvia, and overall stability or slight area reduction in historically larger producers like France and Germany. Climate change impact remains critical in influencing these trends.
