Between 2013 and 2023, Poland's arable land converted to organic farming saw various fluctuations. The area increased significantly in the early years, peaking in 2014 with a year-on-year increase of 13.3%. However, it experienced declines from 2015 to 2018, followed by minor fluctuations, and ultimately settled at 296.41 thousand hectares in 2023. Year-on-year analysis for 2021 to 2023 shows modest growth, with 1.68% in 2021, a slight decline of 4.79% in 2022, and a marginal increase of 0.43% in 2023. The last five years' CAGR is 2.49%, reflecting steady recovery and growth.
Forecast data from 2024 to 2028 presents a relatively stable increase, with a forecasted CAGR of 0.33% and a 1.65% growth rate over this period, indicating a gradual but consistent trend towards more land being converted to organic farming.
Future trends to watch include potential government policies supporting organic farming, technological advancements in farming practices, and changing market demands for organic produce, which could influence the pace of arable land conversion in Poland.
