As of 2023, the road freight volume for support activities in the crop production sector in France stood at a lower level than forecasted for the subsequent years, showing a consistently declining trend. From 2024 to 2028, the forecasted volumes reveal a gradual annual decrease: from 703 million tonne-kilometers to 685 million tonne-kilometers. This illustrates a year-on-year decrease, with an average annual contraction of approximately 0.67% over the five-year period (CAGR).
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of automation in logistics, shifts in agricultural production methods, climate change effects on crop cycles, and policy changes favoring sustainable transport solutions, all possibly influencing the road freight dynamics in this sector.
