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.

It is estimated that in 2021, over €396 million in energy subsidies was allocated in Slovenia (or 356 € million when adjusted to constant prices in 2015). Incentives for environmentally harmful energy production from fossil fuels and the use of fossil fuels represented 26% of all energy subsidies in 2021, whereas this share was as high as 51% in 2015. Significant progress is observed in subsidizing production from renewable energy sources, CHP, and energy efficiency measures.

In Slovenia, the breeding of indigenous domestic animals is becoming less attractive, and out of 15 indigenous breed 14 are endangered. The Carniolan honey bee being the only exception. Eleven out of 13 traditional breeds are also endangered. The share of introduced animal breeds and cross-breeds with introduced breeds has been increasing. The breeds and races where the adaptation to natural conditions is the strongest are the most successful with defying the introduced breeds.

The total number of varieties listed in the National List of Varieties for common wheat, maize and potato from 2011 has decreased. During the same period total number of oilseed varieties has increased, also due to domestic varieties listed as conservation varieties. In other crops the number has remained unchanged. For rye and oats, the proportion of the five most common varieties is 100%. For other crops, the proportion of five most common varieties for each species range from 25% for maize and potato to 90% for triticale.

The response of agricultural holdings to the agricultural policy and favourable market opportunities, which support the spreading of organic farming has been growing every year. The area intended for organic farming has increased in the period 1999–2022 from 2,400 ha to 53,202 ha, or from 0.5% to 11.1% of the total utilised agricultural area. The structure of agricultural land with organic farming is strongly dominated by grassland (79% in 2022), which shows that livestock farms more frequently convert to organic farming.
