Brazil lost 11,785 tonnes between 2022 and 2023, down 1.6 percent. Trinidad and Tobago lost 5 tonnes, down 3.6 percent. Guyana gave up a trace, down 0.2 percent. Madagascar added 196 tonnes, up 0.3 percent. The 4 countries present in both years eased from 824,296 tonnes to 812,702 tonnes, down 11,594 tonnes, or 1.4 percent, with no entries or exits.

Brazil's Decline Shapes Five-Year Cashewapple Supply

Between 2019 and 2023, the same four countries slipped from 840,744 tonnes, down 28,042 tonnes, or 3.3 percent. Brazil lost 27,489 tonnes, down 3.6 percent, accounting for 98.0 percent of the net fall. Madagascar lost 683 tonnes, down 1.0 percent. Trinidad and Tobago added 130 tonnes from a zero base. Guyana gave up a trace, down 2.5 percent.

Brazil Holds Both Cashewapple Leads

Brazil's 9.64 grams a day stood well above Madagascar's 6.10 in second. Trinidad and Tobago sat third at 0.24 grams, with Guyana at 0.01. Brazil therefore leads the table both by total food supply and by food supply per person. Madagascar ranked second in both total food supply and food supply per person.

Madagascar Holds Second in Cashewapple

Madagascar remained comfortably in second place, with 69,467 tonnes in 2023. Its latest increase was only 196 tonnes, while its five-year total declined by 683 tonnes.

What the Cashewapple Data Covers

Cashewapple for human consumption is recorded in tonnes and daily grams per person for each reporting country over 2019-2023. Four countries ever reported it.

Trinidad and Tobago's third-place volume comes from a zero base with no percentage stated, an arrival at third that changes nothing. Guyana's 4 tonnes sit below every threshold that matters.

Methodology

FAO Supply Utilization Accounts class tonnage for human consumption as element 5141 and daily grams per person as element 665, shown for cashewapple across 2019-2023. Percentages use the earlier year as the base, and zero bases use none. The universe contains 4 reporting countries after aggregates are removed, all with 2023 values. There were no entries or exits across the five years. Only countries with values at both endpoints enter comparisons. The 2023 listed total is the sum of every country with a 2023 value. A reported zero is kept, a blank is missing, and under-1,000 values keep two decimals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which country ranks second in cashewapple supply per person?

Madagascar ranked second at 6.10 grams per person per day, behind Brazil's 9.64 grams, with Trinidad and Tobago third at 0.24 grams per day and Guyana fourth at 0.01 grams.

How concentrated is cashewapple supply in Brazil?

Brazil held 743,101 tonnes in 2023, or 91.4 percent of the listed total, and the top three together reached 100.0 percent after rounding to one decimal place.

Is this what people actually ate?

No. The figures measure food available for human consumption in the reference year, not actual intake, so eaten amounts stay below supply in every case.

When did Trinidad and Tobago begin reporting cashewapple?

Trinidad and Tobago reported zero tonnes in 2019 before reaching 130 tonnes in 2023. Because the comparison starts from zero, no percentage change is stated.
