Preliminary data from the Federal Information Center for Agriculture (BZL) shows that Germany's agricultural income is expected to increase by 3.6% in 2021, totaling around 52.5 billion euros. This is largely due to higher grain prices and better plant production conditions. However, the coronavirus pandemic has impacted the potato market and horticulture sector, leading to lower harvest volumes and higher prices for vegetables and fruits. The animal production value is estimated to remain roughly the same as the previous year.
