The total number of varieties listed in the National List of Varieties for cereals, corn, and potatoes has decreased since 2011, while the number of oilseed varieties has steadily increased over the same period, mainly due to domestic varieties registered as conservation varieties and the registration of a larger number of foreign sunflower hybrids. In other crops the number has remained at the similar level. For rye and oats, the proportion of the five most common varieties is 100%.

The share of agricultural land with high natural value has not changed significantly since 2018.

The estimated average long-term dietary intake of metals (lead, cadmium, and mercury) for the adult population of Slovenia does not exceed the corresponding reference points (BMDL) or health-based guidance values (tolerable daily/weekly intakes). However, for children, the average intake of lead, cadmium and mercury (fish consumers) may be exceeded, a situation similar to that in the EU.

In Slovenia, in 2024, 29% of children (0-14 years old) in larger cities were exposed to concentrations of 0-20 µg PM₁₀/m³ and 71 % of children (0-14 years) in larger cities were exposed to concentrations of 20-30 µg PM₁₀/m³. In Europe, most children live in an environment where PM₁₀ concentrations are below 26 µg/m³.

Temperature observations show increasing trend of maximum and minimum absolute temperature in between 1961 and 2022, reflecting a global warming. Number of hot days is increasing, including the frequency of extreme hot days with daily maximum temperature above 35 °C. In the summer of 2013, the highest temperature so far was measured in Slovenia, and local temperature records were observed at many meteorological stations. A record number of hot days was observed in 2022. Number of days with temperature below zero show a decline.
