In 2023, France's hazelnut yield stood at an approximate production level of 23 thousand hectograms per hectare. Forecast for the years 2024 through 2028 shows a consistent, albeit modest, increase in yield from 23.56 to 24.5 thousand hectograms per hectare. Year-on-year variation highlights a gradual increase, averaging around 1% annually, indicative of steady improvement in yield. Considering the compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years, there is a positive growth trend within the hazelnut industry.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of climate change on crop production, advancements in agricultural technology, and market demand fluctuations. Sustainable farming practices and policy changes within the EU could further influence yield outcomes.
