In 2023, the land area equipped for irrigation in Brazil stood at 8.18 million hectares. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 shows a gradual decline in the land area devoted to irrigation, from 8.17 to 8.13 million hectares. Year-on-year analysis indicates a steady decreasing trend, with approximately a 0.12% decline each year from 2024 to 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period suggests a modest average reduction per year.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of technological advancements in irrigation efficiency, potential policy changes favoring sustainable practices, and climate change's effects on water resources, all of which could influence this downward trend in irrigated land area.
