In 2023, the sales volume of herbicides in France was not explicitly provided in the data. However, forecasted figures for 2024 to 2028 show a slight decrease over the years, from 28.92 thousand metric tons in 2024 to 28.74 thousand metric tons in 2028. This projection indicates a declining trend in herbicide sales volume, with incremental year-on-year percentage decreases. Although specific percentage changes are unavailable, the consistent decline reflects a gradual contraction in market size.

Future trends to watch for include:

Increased focus on sustainable agriculture practices and organic farming that may limit herbicide usage.
Regulatory changes impacting chemical usage in agriculture.
Technological advancements in alternative crop protection methods which could influence overall herbicide demand.
