Greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture, mainly methane and nitrous oxide, decreased by 16.3% from 1986 to 2022. The largest declines occurred in pig and cattle production and in fertilizer application to agricultural crops. The rapid decline in emissions was typical of the early years of this period until 2013. From 2013 to 2016, emissions increased. They were steady between 2016 and 2021 and decreased in 2022.

In Slovenia, the market prices follow the trends at the key agricultural markets, globally or regionally important. Market prices of grain are following the trend and the level of EU average, prices of beef are below EU average while the market prices of poultry meat, pig meat and eggs are above the EU average. Slovenia stands out with its market prices of milk, which are among the lowest in the EU.

The above-average years 2013 and 2014 were followed by below-average year 2015 and average period 2016 – 2021 of annual runoff. In the year 2022 annual runoff was below-average. In the period 2016 – 2021, the driest years were 2003, 2011, 1983, 2022, 2007 and 2015. The downward trend of river runoff from the territory of Slovenian currently persists.

Slovenia is a net importer of food, as domestic production does not satisfy the total domestic needs (especially for vegetables, fruit, potatoes and pig meat). The long-term trend indicates that the self-sufficiency rate is higher and more stable for animal products (milk, eggs, beef and poultry meat), except for pig meat and honey, where the self-sufficiency rate is noticeably decreasing. In the analysed period, surpluses occurred only in the domestic production of milk, beef, poultry meat, in some years in eggs and honey, and in recent years in the production of grain maize.

Concentrations of nitrogen dioxide and total nitrogen oxides in ambient air do not exceed the prescribed limit values. Consequently, they are not harmful for human health and vegetation.
