Value of Exports (US Dollars): $43.90 Billion

Belgium is next on the list of the 11 countries with the highest agricultural exports in the world. Out of the nearly $44 billion in food exports from Belgium, almost $3 billion are chocolate exports. However, despite being one of the top agricultural exporters in the world, just 2% of the country’s population is employed in this sector. The small number of people that work in the agricultural industry is due to the disappearance of small family farms, but at the same time, the introduction of new technologies has allowed an increase in production despite declining acreage.
