The yield of primary fibre crops in the UK is forecasted to slightly decrease from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 13.97 thousand hectograms per hectare in 2024, it gradually declines to 13.87 thousand hectograms per hectare by 2028. The year-on-year variations indicate a marginal decrease each year, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflecting a minor downward trend over the forecast period.

Key future trends to watch for include:

Technological advancements in agriculture that could enhance productivity.
The impact of climate change on crop yields and farming practices.
Changes in agricultural policies and subsidies that might influence fibre crop production.
