Data from the Statistical Office of the Republic of Serbia show that the total value of agricultural exports in 2024 reached €5.14 billion, which is 9.5 percent more compared to the previous year.

During the same period, agricultural and food products worth €3.94 billion were imported, resulting in a trade surplus of €1.2 billion.

Positive trends continued in the first quarter of 2025 as well. In the first three months, exports rose to €1.31 billion, representing an increase of 10.9 percent compared to the same period in 2024, with a trade surplus of €248.6 million.

On this occasion, the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management, Prof. Dr. Dragan Glamočić, emphasized that these figures confirm that agriculture is one of the most stable and competitive sectors of the Serbian economy.

“Our food has its place on demanding foreign markets, and the growth in exports indicates increased demand for our products,” he pointed out, adding that the majority of Serbia’s trade is conducted with European Union countries.

The Ministry will continue to support export-oriented producers, with a special focus on introducing innovations, improving quality, and meeting the standards of the EU market and other partners.
