Cabbages Consumption by Country
China accounted for 50.3 percent of the listed global food supply of cabbages in 2023, with India a distant second and South Korea ranking third. Vanuatu had the highest reported food supply per person, while Kenya recorded the largest annual decline. The five-year comparison shows a 6.0 percent increase across countries with data in both 2019 and 2023. These figures measure food available for human consumption, not the amount actually eaten.
Cabbage Supply by Country: Key Findings. China ranked first in cabbage food supply in 2023, with 31,127,202 tonnes, representing 50.3 percent of the listed total. India followed with 9,214,790 tonnes, while South Korea ranked third at 1,930,313 tonnes. Vanuatu had the highest reported food supply per person, at 221.71 grams per day. Across 172 countries with comparable data, total supply increased by 344,907 tonnes from 2022 to 2023. These figures represent food available for human consumption, not actual intake.
China Accounts for Half of Cabbage Supply
China led, 3.38 times India. South Korea ranked third at 1,930,313 tonnes, ahead of Russia at 1,454,848 and Indonesia at 1,345,977. The top three held 68.3 percent of the 61,898,254-tonne total, and the top five 72.8 percent. The United States, Vietnam, Kenya, Ukraine and Uzbekistan closed the top ten between 661,657 and 1,330,183 tonnes. Of 173 countries in the file, 172 carried a 2023 value.
Across the 172 countries with reported values in both 2022 and 2023, supply edged up 0.6 percent, from 61,553,347 tonnes, a gain of 344,907. Kenya recorded the largest decline, shedding 310,783 tonnes, down 24.6 percent. Iran added 234,053 tonnes from a reported zero in 2022; no percentage is calculated from that zero base, and whether the zero reflects reporting or real availability cannot be determined from this table alone. Vietnam added 224,307 tonnes, up 26.8 percent, and India 203,390 tonnes. South Korea shed 194,906 tonnes, down 9.2 percent, while Russia added 142,008. Afghanistan added 133,573 tonnes, up 673.1 percent from 19,845. Uzbekistan added 91,405 tonnes. Among the 172 countries with reported values in both 2019 and 2023, supply grew 6.0 percent, from 58,403,091 tonnes, a gain of 3,495,163. China added 1,752,096 tonnes, half the net rise. India added 849,912 tonnes, up 10.2 percent. Zimbabwe added 576,609 tonnes from 304; such an extreme move from a tiny base should be checked against FAOSTAT records before being read as real growth. Poland shed 330,016 tonnes, down 42.0 percent. Vietnam added 317,397 tonnes, while Kenya added 195,874 tonnes. Hong Kong shed 246,051 tonnes, down 50.2 percent, and Romania 237,433. Cuba reported 67,340 tonnes in 2019 with no later values. Vanuatu's 221.71 grams a day topped the per-person table, ahead of South Korea at 102.20 and Zimbabwe at 96.73. Belarus and Hong Kong followed between 90 and 91 grams. China, the volume leader, reported 59.95 grams per person. Vanuatu reported 24.27 tonnes in 2021 and 25,962 tonnes in 2022, holding a similar level in 2023; this break in the series should be checked against FAOSTAT records before being interpreted. Reported zeros are retained as supplied, while blank cells indicate missing data. This page follows the SUA item labelled Cabbages and counts only its rows; World, regional and aggregate rows are not in the table. The 2023 listed total includes only countries with a reported value for that year. Food here means supply available for people to eat in the reference year, not amounts eaten. For cabbages, tonnage follows element 5141 and daily grams follow element 665 across 2019 to 2023. A change is measured from the earlier year; none is stated from a zero base. Only countries present in both compared years enter a change. A reported zero is not a blank, and blanks never stand in for zeros. The file holds 173 countries after removing World, regional and aggregate rows; all but one carry 2023 values. The numbers describe food available for human consumption.
