Overview
Bosnia and Herzegovina's agriculture value added stood at 4.05% in 2025, a decline of +0.48% from 2024. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 4.05% by 2025. Bosnia and Herzegovina ranked 111th globally.
Bosnia and Herzegovina's agriculture value added as a share of GDP has declined significantly from its all-time peak of 35.85 in 1994 to 4.05 in 2025, the lowest point in its recorded history and ranking 111th globally. Over a 32-year period, this downward trajectory reflects a structural transformation toward services and industry, consistent with broader post-conflict economic development patterns. The 2025 figure places Bosnia and Herzegovina between El Salvador at 4.02 and Latvia at 4.17, suggesting a level of economic structure similar to that of small, emerging or high-income specialized economies. While agriculture remains culturally and regionally important, its diminishing share of GDP underscores reduced reliance on the sector. This trend is likely to persist absent major policy shifts, technological adoption in farming, or external shocks such as climate events or global food market volatility. Sustained investment in agro-processing or rural infrastructure could alter the current trajectory, potentially stabilizing or modestly increasing the sector’s economic contribution in the coming decade.
