Their confidence has jumped from 10 points in the 3rd quarter to 12 points, bringing expectations back into positive territory. “In the 3rd quarter of 2023, the added value in agriculture grew by 88.2% year-on-year, according to data from the Central Statistical Office (KSH), reflecting a lower base, but this good performance also manifests in the sentiment of firms, as they are entering 2024 with higher hopes”, said Zoltán Demeter, head of agribusiness at K&H. The positive sentiment is most palpable in financial expectations: companies forecast a 6.5% rise in sales and a 4.6% growth in profits, compared with 4.7% and 2.3% percent, respectively, in the previous quarter. //
