The forecast for 2024 indicates that Germany remains the leader in European dairy production, followed by Italy and the United Kingdom. The Netherlands shows the highest year-on-year increase, whereas Norway exhibits an impressive growth as well. France, however, sees a significant decline. Over the past year, emerging trends include the expansion of production in countries like Romania and Serbia, whereas traditional dairy producers like France and Greece faced downturns.
Future trends to watch include the potential shifting of production dynamics with growing emphasis on sustainable practices and diversification across emerging dairy markets. Innovation within dairy alternatives may influence traditional cheese production shares.)
