In 2023, the yield of oil crops in Germany stood at 30.16 thousand hectograms per hectare. Forecast data from 2024 to 2028 show a consistent, slight decline. Specifically, yields are expected to drop by 1.2% from 2024 to 2025, then by 1.2% from 2025 to 2026, followed by a 1.2% decrease from 2026 to 2027, and finally a 1.2% reduction from 2027 to 2028. This decline results in a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -1.2% over the five-year period starting from 2023 to 2028.
Key future trends to watch for include:
- The impact of climate change on crop yields in Germany
- Advancements in agricultural technology and farming practices
- Shifts in domestic and global demand for oil crops
- Policy changes affecting agriculture and sustainability
