Based on: Statistical Pattern
Germany's hop harvest in 2025 totalled 43,141 tonnes (–7.2% vs. 46,497 tonnes in 2024). For 2026 the cultivation area shrunk by a further 1,101 hectares (–5.8%) to 17,861 ha — driven mainly by continued decline of Herkules acreage. Spring 2026 in the Hallertau was also exceptionally dry and warm (USDA FAS, Brewers Journal Summer Report 2026), typically resulting in lower per-hectare yields. At the same yield per hectare as 2025 (~2,260 kg/ha), the 5.8% smaller area implies a harvest of ~40,400 tonnes. Barth-Haas reports undersupply expectations for all major Hallertau varieties. No prediction market found. Final harvest statistics are typically published by the German Hop Growers' Association (DGHV) in October/November. Estimated probability below 41,000 tonnes: 58%.
