Agricultural output subsidies in the Netherlands have shown significant variation over the past decade. Starting from 115.95 million Euros in 2013, the value initially declined, hitting a low of 101 million Euros by 2015. A period of mixed growth and decline followed, with substantial increases in 2017 and 2020. However, the past two years (2021 and 2022) saw drastic declines of over 20% and 19% respectively. In 2023, there was a small rebound with a year-on-year increase of 7.21%. The five-year CAGR up to 2023 reveals an average decline of -4.91% per year.
From 2024 onwards, the forecasts predict a steady decline in subsidies, with minimal yearly decreases leading to a five-year CAGR of -0.15%. By 2028, the aggregate growth rate is expected to be -0.75%.
Future trends to watch for include potential policy changes in agricultural support and environmental regulations that might impact subsidy allocations. Additionally, market conditions, international trade dynamics, and technological advancements in agriculture could also play significant roles in shaping future subsidy trends.
