The final consumption of gas oil and diesel oil in agriculture and forestry in Germany is expected to show a steady increase from 2024 through 2028. In 2023, the consumption stood at a slightly lower value than the forecast for 2024. Year-on-year growth rates are projected to rise consistently: 4.50% in 2025, 4.27% in 2026, 4.05% in 2027, and 3.85% in 2028. Over the last five years, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) exhibits a stable upward trajectory, reflecting improved energy use efficiency and possibly increased mechanization in agriculture and forestry.

Future trends to watch for:

Technological advancements in agricultural machinery may influence oil consumption patterns.
Environmental policies could drive shifts toward more sustainable energy sources, affecting diesel and gas oil usage.
Economic factors, including oil prices and subsidies, will play a crucial role in determining consumption rates.
