In 2023, the forage plants production in Italy stood at 2.40 billion Euros. The forecasted data for the period 2024-2028 shows a gradual decline in value, dropping from 2.39 billion Euros in 2024 to 2.36 billion Euros by 2028. This reflects a slight decrease in production, with a year-on-year variation of approximately -0.42% from 2024 to 2025 and similarly a -0.42% annually thereafter. Over the forecasted five-year period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is approximately -0.42%, indicating a subtle, consistent decline in value.

Future trends to watch for:

Shifts in agricultural policies or subsidies that may impact production costs and prices.
Technological advancements in agricultural practices which could improve yields or reduce costs.
Changes in demand for forage plants due to livestock industry trends or alternative feed developments.
Potential climate change impacts affecting crop productivity or profitability in the region.
