Chile's agriculture sector contribution to GDP saw a steady decline from 9.3% in 1991 to about 3.5% by 2022. The reduction reflects Chile’s economic evolution toward mining, services, and technology, sectors that have gained prominence since the 1990s. Despite this decline, agriculture remains a key part of Chile's economy, with exports such as fruits, vegetables, and wine serving as major revenue sources.
In recent years, agriculture’s contribution has hovered around 3.5-4%, showing a stable presence despite a diversified economic structure. Notable peaks, like the increase to 4.3% in 2017, may be tied to favorable weather conditions and high demand for Chilean produce in global markets, particularly in Asia and North America.
