Slovenia is a net importer of food, as imports exceed exports in terms of value. After accession to the European Union, both trade flows began to increase significantly. Imports increased more intensely, mainly due to processed products, while exports increased due to unprocessed agricultural products. In the past decade, however, the growth of food and beverages exports has been more intensive than that of imports, resulting in improved import coverage, which averaged 65% in the period 2020–2024.

Road freight transport in Slovenia has grown sharply since the country’s accession to the EU, with the volume of tonne-kilometres carried by Slovenian hauliers alone increasing more than 2.5 times between 2004 and 2024. After the pandemic-related slowdown, the volume of road freight transport returned to previous levels.

In Slovenia, the volume of passenger transport and traffic has been increasing over the past few decades. In particular, there has been a steady rise in one of the most environmentally damaging modes of transport – car travel. Its share places Slovenia in the unenviable fourth place among EU member states whose residents rely most heavily on private cars for their journeys.

The main source of renewable energy from agriculture in Slovenia is the production of electricity from biogas. Electricity production from "agricultural" biogas plants included in the support scheme for electricity produced from RES increased from 0.04 kToe in 2004 to 10.67 kToe in 2011 and then fell to 5.18 kToe in 2024. The decline in electricity production in recent years is mainly due to the expiration of the right to support, which lasts for 15 years.

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.
