In Belgium, the forecasted vegetable production for 2024 stands at 1.94 million metric tons, which is the same level observed in 2023. Subsequent years show a slight downward trend: production is expected to decrease to 1.92 million metric tons in 2025, 1.89 in 2026, 1.87 in 2027, and 1.85 in 2028. This represents a year-on-year decline of approximately 1% from 2024 to 2025, and similar small declines in the following years.

Future trends to watch for:

The potential impact of climate change on growing conditions.
Advancements in agricultural technology and practices that could affect production efficiency.
Market demand dynamics both locally and internationally.
Policy changes related to agriculture and trade.
