Data on GHG emissions from forest fires show a downward trend, which is, however, not statistically significant. In the long term, there is a major forest fire in Slovenia about every five years, so GHG emissions are relatively high in these years. The highest GHG emissions due to forest fires since we have been recording data were in 2003.

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions due to land-use change generally show a declining trend. In 2021, GHG emissions from deforestation decreased by 0.5% compared to the previous year, with more than half, i.e. 62%, of these emissions coming from the establishment of agricultural land. GHG emissions due to land conversion to built-up and related land decreased by 2.8% compared to the previous year. The largest share of emissions (66%) is due to the conversion of agricultural land to built-up and related land.

In the period 2005–2022, the land area in the organic farming measure more than doubled (from 20,477 to 50,540 ha). The target set by the Operational Programme for Reducing GHG Emissions until 2020 (OP GHG) for 2020 (44,000 ha) was already exceeded in 2018. The new targets of the Strategic Plan of the Common Agricultural Policy 2023–2027 are significantly more ambitious, and the past trends show that achieving them will be very challenging.

Greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) per unit of milk produced show a clear and favourable downward trend after 2013. The target value for 2022 (< 0.704 kg CO₂ eq per kg milk) was achieved. In beef production, the trend in emissions intensity after 2014 is favourable, but somewhat insufficiently intensive. It is not yet possible to comment on the achievement of the target, as the indicator, including the proposal for the target values for the period 2022–2030, was not proposed until 2023.

After 2005, the gross nitrogen budget ranged between 32 and 69 kg per hectare of agricultural land with an indistinct downward trend. On average over the last five-year period, the target value (less than 50.4 kg per ha) was achieved. In 2022, the nitrogen balance surplus rose sharply compared to the previous year (from 46.2 to 69.1 kg per ha). The target value (less than 49.4 kg per ha) was therefore not achieved. The increase in the surplus is attributed to the drought, which caused a decrease in the nitrogen uptake by agricultural plants.
