In 2023, Germany's import of chemical and fertilizer minerals was at a baseline level that, starting from 2024, begins a gradual decline. The forecasted data from 2024 to 2028 indicate a consistent drop in import volume from 1.4656 billion kilograms annually to 1.436 billion kilograms. This reflects a continuous annual decrease, culminating in a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) that illustrates a diminishing trend over five years.

Future trends to watch:

Potential changes in agricultural practices that might affect fertiliser demand.
Geopolitical influences on global supply chains and trade agreements influencing import dynamics.
Technological advancements in fertiliser production could shift the reliance on imports.
Environmental regulations pushing towards more sustainable and reduced use of chemical fertilizers.
