In 2023, Austria leads in the percentage of total utilized agricultural area devoted to organic soya farming, while Romania and Croatia are tied with moderate shares.

Future trends indicate a potential increase in organic soya farming across European countries, driven by heightened consumer demand for organic products and sustainable agriculture. Slovakia’s brisk growth may signal wider regional trends, though stagnant areas like Bulgaria could slow overall expansion. Monitoring regulations and market dynamics will be crucial.
