In 2023, Germany led European countries in sold production of milk and cream with a fat content exceeding 6%, followed by Italy, Netherlands, and the United Kingdom. Italy and Netherlands exhibited significant growth over the past year, with increases of 39.36% and 28.43% respectively. France, however, saw a considerable decline of 34.43%. Other notable changes include a slight decrease in Poland and an increase in Ireland’s production by 6.2%.
Looking ahead, trends to watch include potential growth in Southern European countries like Italy, driven by increasing demand for high-fat dairy products. Meanwhile, countries like France may need to adapt to stabilize production levels. Sustainability and consumer preference towards organic and locally sourced products could shape future production landscapes.
