Methodology
Frequently Asked Questions
Which country had the largest cucumber and gherkin supply?
China, with 73,296,817 tonnes in 2023, or 82.9 percent of the listed total, 43.51 times second-placed United States at 1,684,673 tonnes, with Russia third overall.
What moved the latest total?
China added 2,390,723 tonnes, up 3.4 percent, most of the 2,738,376-tonne net gain, with Iran adding 104,657 tonnes and the United States 86,671 tonnes overall.
How did five years net out?
China added 9,011,392 tonnes, up 14.0 percent, nearly all of the 9,288,289-tonne net gain, with Saudi Arabia adding 136,052 tonnes while Ukraine shed 149,034 tonnes.
Who led per person?
China, at 141.16 grams per person per day in 2023, ahead of Albania at 84.60, while second-placed United States sat far down the per-person table.
Does this supply equal food eaten?
No. The figures measure food available for human consumption in the reference year, not actual intake, so they describe supply rather than the amounts people actually ate.
