In 2023, Poland's hemp seed production stood at 17 metric tons, continuing a downward trend observed over the past decade. From 2013 to 2023, production has decreased from 30 metric tons to 17 metric tons, reflecting an overall negative growth trajectory. The year-on-year variations show a consistent decline, particularly notable over the last two years with decreases of 10% in 2022 and 5.56% in 2023. Analyzing the CAGR over the past five years up to 2023 reveals an average annual reduction of 8.15%. This diminishing trend is expected to continue through 2028, with a forecasted CAGR of -11.92% and a total decrease of nearly 47% over the next five years.
Future trends to watch for include potential regulatory changes in the agricultural sector, advancements in hemp cultivation techniques, and shifts in market demand for hemp-based products. Increased focus on sustainability and organic farming could also impact future production levels positively.
