In 2023, the import of herbicides, anti-sprouting products, and plant-growth regulators to France amounted to 73 million kilograms. The forecast for 2024 shows a slight decrease to approximately 72.792 million kilograms, suggesting a declining trend over the following years. Each subsequent year from 2025 to 2028 shows a consistent annual reduction in volume, reflecting minor year-on-year decreases. This trend indicates a gradual decline in importation, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggesting a persistent but slight contraction over the five-year period.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in agricultural practices that could influence demand. External factors such as EU regulations, technological advancements in farming, or a pivot towards organic agriculture could further impact import volumes. Additionally, global market dynamics, such as supply chain disruptions or changes in competitive regional markets, might alter the import landscape significantly.
