Eggs Consumption by Country

In 2023, China held 32,663 thousand tonnes of listed eggs food supply, 39.1 percent of an 83,545-thousand-tonne total spread across 176 reporters. Three reporters built four-fifths of the five-year growth: China added 2,258 thousand tonnes, Indonesia 1,835 and India 1,377. Belgium recorded the highest per-capita figure at 31.83 kilograms per person per year. The series spans 2019 through 2023, although some reporters have missing values for individual years.

China leads at 32,663 thousand tonnes, 4.81 times India at 6,792. Per capita, Belgium had the highest figure at 31.83 kilograms from 373 thousand tonnes, ahead of Hong Kong at 28.30 and Luxembourg at 25.47 kilograms. China still ranks fifth per capita at 22.96 kilograms, unusually high for a volume leader.

Eggs Food Supply at a Glance

• China had the largest listed eggs food supply in 2023 at 32,663 thousand tonnes.
• India ranked second at 6,792 thousand tonnes, followed by Indonesia at 5,869 thousand tonnes.
• Belgium had the highest per-capita food supply at 31.83 kilograms per person per year.
• The listed total was 83,545 thousand tonnes across 176 reporters with reported values.
• Among 176 reporters with data in both 2019 and 2023, listed eggs food supply increased by 6,746 thousand tonnes, or 8.8 percent.
• The FAO Food element measures food available for human consumption and is not a direct measure of the amount actually eaten.

Key Takeaways

The five-year change was driven largely by three reporters, while Myanmar recorded the largest decline. China added 2,258 thousand tonnes (up 7.4 percent), Indonesia 1,835 thousand tonnes (up 45.5 percent) and India 1,377 thousand tonnes (up 25.4 percent), together 5,470 thousand tonnes against a net gain of 6,746. Myanmar fell 404 thousand tonnes (down 79.1 percent).

Between 2022 and 2023, listed supply across the 176 reporters with data in both years rose by 2,098 thousand tonnes, or 2.6 percent. China, Indonesia, India and Belgium accounted for most of the largest increases, while the Netherlands and South Africa recorded notable declines. These figures represent food available for human consumption in the FAO Food Balances and should not be interpreted as the amount of eggs actually eaten.

Eggs Consumption by Country in 2023

The 2023 table is led by China at 32,663 thousand tonnes, with India second at 6,792 and Indonesia third at 5,869. The United States and Mexico complete the top five at 5,354 and 2,795 thousand tonnes, respectively.

China holds 39.1 percent of the 83,545-thousand-tonne listed total. The top three reporters accounted for 54.3 percent of the listed total, while the top five represented 64.0 percent and the top ten 74.0 percent. Belgium rose from 225 thousand tonnes in 2022 to 373 thousand tonnes in 2023, an increase of 65.8 percent.

China Adds 923 Thousand Tonnes as Supply Grows 2.6 Percent Between 2022 and 2023

Among the 176 reporters with data in both 2022 and 2023, the listed food supply increased from 81,447 thousand tonnes to 83,545 thousand tonnes, a gain of 2,098 thousand tonnes (2.6 percent). The 2022 and 2023 listed totals come from the same 176 reporters, with no reporter entering or leaving the comparison. China added 923 thousand tonnes (up 2.9 percent), Indonesia added 491 thousand tonnes (up 9.1 percent), India added 178 thousand tonnes (up 2.7 percent), Belgium added 148 thousand tonnes (up 65.8 percent), Malaysia added 98 thousand tonnes (up 14.8 percent) and Türkiye added 65 thousand tonnes (up 7.6 percent), while the Netherlands fell 127 thousand tonnes (down 28.2 percent) and South Africa fell 57 thousand tonnes (down 13.3 percent).

China, Indonesia and India Add 5,470 Thousand Tonnes as Supply Grows 8.8 Percent Since 2019

For the 176 reporters with data in both 2019 and 2023, the listed food supply rose from 76,799 thousand tonnes to 83,545 thousand tonnes, a gain of 6,746 thousand tonnes (8.8 percent). The 2019 total includes 177 reporters with reported values, while the 2023 total includes 176; Cuba, with 105 thousand tonnes in 2019, had no reported 2023 value. China added 2,258 thousand tonnes (up 7.4 percent), Indonesia added 1,835 thousand tonnes (up 45.5 percent), India added 1,377 thousand tonnes (up 25.4 percent), Malaysia added 319 thousand tonnes (up 72.2 percent) and Belgium added 258 thousand tonnes (up 224.3 percent), while Myanmar fell 404 thousand tonnes (down 79.1 percent), Ukraine fell 207 thousand tonnes (down 25.3 percent) and Pakistan added 202 thousand tonnes (up 26.8 percent).

China contributes 33.5 percent of the five-year net increase, followed by Indonesia at 27.2 percent and India at 20.4 percent. Myanmar's fall from 511 to 107 thousand tonnes is the largest single decline in the window. Per capita, Belgium's 31.83 kilograms from 373 thousand tonnes lead Hong Kong at 28.30 kilograms, while China, first by total, records 22.96 kilograms.

What Does the Eggs Food Supply Measure?

For FAO Food Balances, the figure used here is the FAO item Eggs recorded under the Food element as available for human consumption. It represents food available for human consumption during the reference year rather than a direct estimate of the amount of eggs people actually ate. Egg products recorded under separate detailed items sit outside this aggregate figure.

The per-capita figure expresses the same food supply on a population basis, in kilograms per person per year. A country's total quantity and per-capita value therefore answer different questions: total quantity shows the size of the listed food supply, while the per-capita measure adjusts it for population.

Eggs Consumption by Country: Quick Answer

In 2023, according to FAO Food Balances, China had the largest listed eggs food supply among the 176 reporters with reported values, at 32,663 thousand tonnes. India ranked second at 6,792 thousand tonnes, while Indonesia ranked third at 5,869 thousand tonnes. Belgium had the highest per-capita eggs food supply at 31.83 kilograms per person per year. These FAO Food Balances figures represent food available for human consumption, not a direct measurement of eggs actually eaten.

Methodology

Percentage changes use the corresponding value in the earlier year as the base. Yearly totals use FAO Food Balances food quantity (Element 5142, thousand tonnes), while the per-capita figures use food supply quantity (Element 645, kg/capita/year) for Eggs from 2019 through 2023. The Food element represents the quantity available for human consumption during the reference period. It is not a direct measure of the amount actually eaten, as food can be lost or wasted before it is consumed. No percentage change is shown where the base-year value is zero.

The reporter universe for this item contains 177 reporters. The tables list reporters only; aggregate rows such as World, regions and China (aggregate) are excluded, while China figures refer to the China reporter. For year-to-year comparisons, only reporters with values in both endpoint years are included in the arithmetic. A zero indicates a displayed value of zero, while an empty cell indicates that no value is available for that reporter and year.

Quantities of 1,000 thousand tonnes and above are shown as whole numbers; smaller quantities retain up to two decimals. FAO Food Balances primarily use official national statistics, with some data also estimated or imputed where applicable. The FAO dataset reports the Food element in thousand tonnes and food supply quantity in kilograms per capita per year. The listed total of 83,545 thousand tonnes is the sum of the 176 reporters with a reported 2023 value; it excludes aggregate rows and reporters without a 2023 value.
