Agriculture Sector Contribution to GDP in Serbia (1990-2022)

Serbia’s agriculture sector contributed over 16% to GDP in the mid-1990s but declined steadily to 6.5% by 2022. This reduction reflects Serbia’s transition to a market economy and diversification into manufacturing and services. Sharp declines, such as from 14.7% in 2001 to 8.1% by 2003, mark periods of restructuring as the country opened up economically.

Recent stability around 6-7% indicates the sector’s continued relevance, particularly for rural employment and export commodities. Agriculture remains a critical part of Serbia's economy, despite its reduced GDP share.
