Dry Beans Consumption by Country
India's 5.72 million tonnes top listed dry-beans supply in 2023 — 29.0 percent of 19,691,226 tonnes across 166 reporters — after falling 471,207 tonnes in a single year. Five years added 12.6 percent on broad gains: Uganda up 134.1 percent, Kazakhstan up 207.8 percent, Argentina up 168.0 percent. Rwanda tops per person at 84.4 grams a day.
India reported the largest 2023 supply at 5,719,727 tonnes, 2.20 times Brazil at 2,603,607, while Rwanda recorded the highest per-capita figure at 84.4 grams per person per day. India opens the 2023 table at 5,719,727 tonnes (29.0 percent of 19,691,226), Brazil at 2,603,607 and Tanzania at 1,052,743. Mexico and Uganda follow at 939,000 and 762,927 tonnes. The top three hold 47.6 percent, the top five 56.3 percent and the top ten 70.2 percent. Per person, Rwanda leads at 84.4 grams a day — ninth by volume and first per person — with El Salvador at 54.13 and Tanzania at 43.3 behind. For the 165 reporters with values in both 2019 and 2023, listed supply rose from 17,485,200 tonnes to 19,691,226, up 2,206,026 tonnes or 12.6 percent. Cuba left with 136,040 tonnes while Nauru entered at zero. India added 553,592 tonnes (up 10.7 percent), 25.1 percent of the net increase, with Uganda adding 437,085 (up 134.1 percent), Kazakhstan 202,529 (up 207.8 percent), China 164,108 (up 57.0 percent), Argentina 158,876 (up 168.0 percent), Tanzania 119,613 (up 12.8 percent), Ethiopia 119,601 (up 41.1 percent) and the United States 114,376 (up 19.0 percent). Across the 166 reporters with values in both 2022 and 2023, listed supply moved from 20,097,019 tonnes to 19,691,226, down 405,793 tonnes or 2.0 percent, with none entering or leaving. India fell 471,207 tonnes (down 7.6 percent) and the United States 265,468 (down 27.0 percent), while Uganda added 180,350 (up 31.0 percent), Tanzania 70,686 (up 7.2 percent), Argentina 63,443 (up 33.4 percent), Indonesia 51,616 (up 27.6 percent), Kazakhstan 50,000 (up 20.0 percent) and China fell 36,414 (down 7.5 percent). The FAO item covers beans, dry, as a specific food item. It is reported separately from other pulse categories, so those categories are not added to the figures here. Food supply quantity captures what was available for human consumption during the reference year. The gram-per-day figure spreads that availability across the population on a daily basis. India recorded the largest 2023 listed dry-beans supply at 5,719,727 tonnes — 29.0 percent of a 19,691,226-tonne listed total across 166 reporters. Brazil followed at 2,603,607 and Tanzania at 1,052,743 tonnes. Rwanda had the highest per-capita figure at 84.4 grams per person per day. These figures measure food available for human consumption, not the amount actually eaten. Counted here are FAO Supply Utilization Accounts reporters holding a value in at least one year from 2019 through 2023 — 167 in all, printed as reporters only, without World, regional or China (aggregate) rows; China here denotes the China reporter. Percentages take the earlier endpoint year as base for reporters present in both years. A zero base gives no percentage; reported zeros count as zero, blanks as no report. Element 5141 (food supply quantity, tonnes) gives the country totals and element 665 (grams per capita per day) the per-person values — for beans, dry, across 2019-2023, measuring supply available for human consumption in the reference year rather than intake. Tonnes appear as FAO published them, unrounded. The 2023 listed total of 19,691,226 tonnes sums the 166 reporters carrying a 2023 value.

Methodology
Frequently Asked Questions
What pulled the latest year down while five years rose?
India fell 471,207 tonnes in 2022-2023 while Uganda added 180,350 and Tanzania 70,686 — leaving a 405,793-tonne net decrease. Over five years India added 553,592 with Uganda adding 437,085. The figures describe each window without naming causes.
What drove Uganda's 134.1 percent climb?
Uganda moved from 325,842 tonnes in 2019 to 762,927 in 2023, up 437,085 tonnes. The figures show the scale of the rise without explaining it.
Rwanda ranks ninth by volume but first per person — why?
Rwanda's 429,905 tonnes work out to 84.4 grams a day per person, the highest shown. Volume ranks reporters against each other; per-person figures divide the same supply by population.
