What the numbers say
In 2025, Zimbabwe's agriculture, forestry, and fishing, value added (current LCU) rose 115.7% on 2024 (from 71.5 billion to 154.25 billion).
Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1995 to 2024), the average change was +126% and a typical year strayed about 300.1% from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.0 standard deviations below that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was 1,344.7% in 2019 and the biggest yearly fall was 61.1% in 1992. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2016 to 2025 the straight-line trend is upward, about 11.71 billion a year. A straight line explains 48% of the movement over 10 observed years.
