France's domestic material consumption of fodder crops and grazed biomass is forecasted to trend downward from 2024 with a notable decrease from 75.86 million metric tons in 2024 to 73.17 million metric tons by 2028. After peaking in 2024, a steady annual decline is anticipated, reflecting a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) decline across these years. The year-on-year percentage decrease highlights a gradual but consistent reduction in consumption volumes.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential impacts of climate change on agricultural yields and biomass availability.
- Technological advancements in agricultural practices and their influence on resource efficiency.
- Shifts in policy aimed at promoting sustainable agricultural practices and reducing environmental impact.
- Consumer trends pushing for more plant-based diets that might further adjust fodder crop demands.
