Key Takeaways

In 2023, China had the largest listed food supply of apples at 36,477 thousand tonnes, with the United States second at 16,815 thousand tonnes and Türkiye third at 3,134 thousand tonnes. India followed at 3,060 thousand tonnes and Russia at 2,989 thousand tonnes. Saint Kitts and Nevis's 70.96 kilograms per person per year lead the per-capita ranking, followed by Bosnia and Herzegovina at 53.75 kilograms.

Between 2022 and 2023, listed supply across the 176 reporters with data in both years eased from 88,046 thousand tonnes to 87,232 thousand tonnes, a decline of 814 thousand tonnes (0.9 percent), as China's 3,404-thousand-tonne gain nearly cancelled the United States' 3,326-thousand-tonne fall. Since 2019, the common-reporter total has grown 5.8 percent, with China's 5,090-thousand-tonne gain worth 106.2 percent of the net increase. These figures represent food available for human consumption in the FAO Food Balances and should not be interpreted as the amount of apples actually eaten.

Apples Consumption by Country in 2023

China holds 36,477 thousand tonnes, or 41.8 percent of the 87,232-thousand-tonne listed total. The United States follows at 16,815 thousand tonnes (19.3 percent) and Türkiye at 3,134 thousand tonnes (3.6 percent), with India fourth at 3,060 thousand tonnes and Russia fifth at 2,989 thousand tonnes.

The top three reporters account for 64.7 percent of the listed total, while the top five account for 71.6 percent and the top ten account for 78.8 percent. The United States is the only reporter besides China above 10,000 thousand tonnes.

China and the United States Nearly Cancel as Supply Edges Down 0.9 Percent Between 2022 and 2023

Among the 176 reporters with data in both 2022 and 2023, the listed food supply decreased from 88,046 thousand tonnes to 87,232 thousand tonnes, a decline of 814 thousand tonnes (0.9 percent). The 2022 and 2023 listed totals come from the same 176 reporters, with no reporter entering or leaving the comparison. China added 3,404 thousand tonnes (up 10.3 percent), India added 332 thousand tonnes (up 12.2 percent) and Chile added 246 thousand tonnes (up 121.2 percent), while the United States fell 3,326 thousand tonnes (down 16.5 percent), the United Kingdom fell 325 thousand tonnes (down 18.1 percent), South Africa fell 314 thousand tonnes (down 40.4 percent), the Netherlands fell 286 thousand tonnes (down 36.5 percent) and Germany fell 185 thousand tonnes (down 11.8 percent).

China Adds 5,090 Thousand Tonnes as Supply Grows 5.8 Percent Since 2019

For the 176 reporters with data in both 2019 and 2023, the listed food supply rose from 82,439 thousand tonnes to 87,232 thousand tonnes, a gain of 4,793 thousand tonnes (5.8 percent). The 2019 total includes 177 reporters with reported values, while the 2023 total includes 176; Cuba, with 10 thousand tonnes in 2019, had no reported 2023 value. China added 5,090 thousand tonnes (up 16.2 percent), India added 697 thousand tonnes (up 29.5 percent) and Türkiye added 590 thousand tonnes (up 23.2 percent), while the United States fell 910 thousand tonnes (down 5.1 percent), the United Kingdom fell 535 thousand tonnes (down 26.7 percent), Iran fell 313 thousand tonnes (down 21.0 percent), Ukraine fell 243 thousand tonnes (down 30.1 percent) and the Netherlands fell 236 thousand tonnes (down 32.2 percent).

China's gain exceeds the entire five-year net increase, offset by declines in the United States, the United Kingdom, Iran, Ukraine and the Netherlands. Per capita, Saint Kitts and Nevis's 70.96 kilograms from 3 thousand tonnes lead Bosnia and Herzegovina at 53.75 kilograms, while China, first by total, records 25.64 kilograms.

What Does the Apples Food Supply Measure?

For FAO Food Balances, the apples figure used here covers the FAO item Apples and products recorded under the Food element as available for human consumption. It represents food available for human consumption during the reference year, rather than a direct estimate of the amount of apples people actually ate. Other fruit recorded under separate items sits outside this figure.

The per-capita figure expresses the same food supply on a population basis, in kilograms per person per year. A country's total quantity and per-capita value therefore answer different questions: total quantity shows the size of the listed food supply, while the per-capita measure adjusts it for population.

Apples Consumption by Country: Quick Answer

In 2023, according to FAO Food Balances, China had the largest listed food supply of apples among the 176 reporters with reported values, at 36,477 thousand tonnes. The United States ranked second at 16,815 thousand tonnes, while Türkiye ranked third at 3,134 thousand tonnes. Saint Kitts and Nevis had the highest per-capita apples food supply at 70.96 kilograms per person per year. These FAO Food Balances figures represent food available for human consumption, not a direct measurement of apples actually eaten.

Methodology

Percentage changes use the corresponding value in the earlier year as the base. Yearly totals use FAO Food Balances food quantity (Element 5142, thousand tonnes), while the per-capita figures use food supply quantity (Element 645, kg/capita/year) for Apples and products from 2019 through 2023. The Food element represents the quantity available for human consumption during the reference period. It is not a direct measure of the amount actually eaten, as food can be lost or wasted before it is consumed. No percentage change is shown where the base-year value is zero.

The reporter universe for this item contains 177 reporters. The tables list reporters only; aggregate rows such as World, regions and China (aggregate) are excluded, while China figures refer to the China reporter. For year-to-year comparisons, only reporters with values in both endpoint years are included in the arithmetic. A zero indicates a displayed value of zero, while an empty cell indicates that no value is available for that reporter and year.

Quantities of 1,000 thousand tonnes and above are shown as whole numbers; smaller quantities retain up to two decimals. FAO Food Balances primarily use official national statistics, with some data also estimated or imputed where applicable. The FAO dataset reports the Food element in thousand tonnes and food supply quantity in kilograms per capita per year. The 2023 listed total of 87,232 thousand tonnes is the sum of the 176 reporters with a reported 2023 value; it excludes aggregate rows and reporters without a 2023 value.
