Despite a decrease in growth rate in 2024, Portugal`s import of alfalfa hay continues to be dominated by a small number of countries, with Spain, Chile, Belgium, Germany, and the Netherlands leading the way. The high concentration of the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) indicates a competitive market for these exporters. The consistent Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 4.94% from 2020 to 2024 suggests steady demand for alfalfa hay in Portugal, highlighting its importance in the country`s agricultural sector.
By 2027, the Alfalfa Hay market in Portugal is anticipated to reach a growth rate of 2.39%, as part of an increasingly competitive Europe region, where Germany remains at the forefront, supported by United Kingdom, France, Italy and Russia, driving innovations and market adoption across sectors.
