In 2023, the organic barley production in France was estimated at 120.0 thousand metric tons. The forecast indicates steady growth from 2024 to 2028, with production values expected to rise annually from 131.42 to 170.1 thousand metric tons. This represents a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of approximately 6.6% over the five-year period.
The most notable trend is consistent annual growth, driven potentially by increased consumer demand for organic products and government policies supporting organic farming.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Increasing focus on sustainable agriculture practices.
- Shifts in consumer preferences towards organic and non-GMO products.
- Potential impacts of climate change on agricultural productivity.
