In 2023, the actual natural gas final consumption in agriculture and forestry in France was the baseline from which we can observe future trends.

From 2024 to 2028, forecasted consumption displays a consistent upward trajectory, with notable year-on-year increments of around 2.6% from 2024 to 2025, 2.1% from 2025 to 2026, 1.7% from 2026 to 2027, and 1.3% from 2027 to 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for this five-year forecast period is approximately 2.0%.

Key future trends to watch include:

Potential shifts in energy policies impacting natural gas usage in agricultural and forestry sectors.
Technological advancements in alternative energy sources that could affect natural gas demand.
Economic factors influencing agricultural productivity and energy consumption efficiency.
