In the past 30 years, consumption of plant protection products (PPPs) in Slovenia has been steadily decreasing and PPPs sales declined from 2,031 tons in 1992 to 914 tons in 2021. Due to the higher share of permanent crops, fungicides account for more than two thirds of all PPPs used in Slovenia. In 2021, the total consumption of PPPs per unit of arable land and permanent crops was 4.5 kg of active ingredient per hectare, which is the lowest amount in the last 10-year period of monitoring of PPPs consumption.
