The Italian agriculture, forestry, and fishing sector is projected to experience a slight contraction in value-added terms over the next five years. With consistent negative growth rates forecasted at -0.35% and -0.36%, the sector shows a modest yet persistent decline.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential policy interventions and subsidies aimed at invigorating the sector and reversing the downward trend.
Adoption of sustainable farming practices which could influence productivity and outputs positively.
Impacts of climate change, which could exacerbate challenges in this sector and require adaptive strategies.
