The totals listed for each year were 1,064,541 tonnes (26 reporters) and 1,246,866 tonnes (26 reporters); no reporter present in 2020 is absent in 2024, while no new reporters joined. India added 135,386 tonnes (up 21.4 percent) and China 33,177 tonnes (up 15.9 percent), while Pakistan added 14,872 tonnes (up 13.6 percent). Percentage changes use the corresponding value in the earlier year as the base. Yearly totals sum FAO Crops and Livestock Products production quantity (Element 5510) for item Edible offal of buffalo; fresh; chilled or frozen, 2020-2024. For edible buffalo offal production, quantities below 1,000 tonnes retain two decimals and larger quantities are shown as whole tonnes. The 2024 edible buffalo offal production ranking and shares use 2024 listed quantities. In the edible buffalo offal production data, zero means a reported nil or negligible flow; an empty cell means no quantity was reported. For edible buffalo offal production changes, only countries with quantities in both endpoint years enter the arithmetic. Production quantities are reported to FAO by national statistical sources.

Methodology
Frequently Asked Questions
How much of the 2023–2024 increase came from India?
India added 15,977 tonnes (up 2.1 percent) against a common-universe gain of 33,047 tonnes, accounting for 48.3 percent of the increase. China added a further 8,217 tonnes (up 3.5 percent).
How did Venezuela move since 2020?
Venezuela rose from 2,982 tonnes in 2020 to 6,587 tonnes in 2024, a change of 3,605 tonnes (up 120.9 percent). Venezuela reports in both years, so the rise sits inside the change universe.
Did the reporter set change at all?
No. The same 26 countries reported in 2020, 2023 and 2024, so both change universes equal the reporter set and the listed totals move only on reported quantities.
