2025 Above-Average Vegetable Harvest in Austria

Although the cool spring slightly delayed development, and there were isolated dry periods and hail damage in the summer, overall, the plants found "good growth conditions" in this year's season, the statisticians summarized. This is especially evident in legumes such as peas and in root and onion vegetables, which totaled 419,900 tons, almost a fifth (18 percent) above the five-year average. The largest harvest quantities were for onions (219,900 tons) and carrots (124,900 tons).

There were slight declines in some fruit vegetable crops. With 170,900 tons on a slightly increased cultivation area, the harvest was overall 1 percent above the previous year's level and 2 percent above the five-year average. For example, tomato production slightly decreased (minus 1 percent) with a slightly reduced area year-on-year, and for cucumbers, it was minus 7 percent.
