ABN Amro: Dutch farm count to fall 35-45% by 2035, sector remains competitive

ABN Amro projects a 35-45% reduction in Dutch agricultural businesses by 2035 relative to 2025, driven by consolidation and policy pressures. The bank asserts the sector will retain its global competitive position despite the shrinkage. This signals structural change in a key export sector, with implications for land use, rural employment, and Dutch trade balances.
