Supply balance sheets of agricultural products, 2021
Self-sufficiency rates with honey and fruit very low
In 2021, a resident of Slovenia consumed on average 116 kg of vegetables, 115 kg of cereals, 109 kg of fruit, 89 kg of meat, 63 kg of potatoes, 11 kg of eggs and 0.60 kg of honey for food.
Self-sufficiency rates lower on average than a year ago
Self-sufficiency rates in plant balances were lower than in 2020 due to bad weather conditions. In the case of animal balances, self-sufficiency rates were higher than in 2020, except for honey. As regards plant balances, the self-sufficiency rate for fruit (14%) was lower by 22 percentage points, for potatoes (44%) by 16 percentage points, for vegetables (44%) by 4 percentage points and for cereals (85%) by 3 percentage points. As regards animal balances, the self-sufficiency rate in eggs (97%) was 2 percentage points higher and in meat (85%) 1 percentage point higher. The self-sufficiency rate for honey (15%) was lower by 52 percentage points. The self-sufficiency rates for honey, fruit and potatoes are thus the lowest since 2000.
Domestic cereal production comparable to 2020
Domestic cereal production weighed 701,000 tonnes, which is 7% less than in 2020. Domestic consumption of cereals reached 825,000 tonnes, which is 3% less than in 2020. Due to lower domestic production and consumption of cereals, which remained at a comparable level, the self-sufficiency rate in cereals fell by 3 percentage points, resulting in 4% more cereals being imported in 2021.
Bad weather conditions had a strong impact on fruit and honey production
Due to bad weather conditions, domestic fruit production reached 34,000 tonnes in 2021, which is 70% less than in 2020 (113,000 tonnes). Bad weather also had a strong effect on domestic honey production. In 2021, domestic honey production weighed 200 tonnes, which is 84% less than in 2020 (1,290 tonnes).
Consumption of eggs up, of honey and fruit down
In 2021, a resident of Slovenia consumed on average the most vegetables (116 kg) and cereals (115 kg), followed by fruit (109 kg), meat (89 kg), potatoes (63 kg), eggs (11 kg) and honey (0.60 kg). Compared to 2020, the average consumption of eggs increased by 10% and meat by 1%, while the average consumption of honey decreased by 32%, fruit by 16%, vegetables and potatoes by 2% and cereals by 1%.

METHODOLOGICAL NOTE
Calendar supply balance sheets of agricultural products for 2021 are prepared on the basis of the provisional data. The final data will be published on 11. 11. 2022.
The calendar balances of production and consumption of potatoes, fruit, vegetables and cereals for 2020 have been revised due to the updating of data sources. The changes are very minor.
