The United States Holds 33.7 Percent While Kuwait Leads Per Person

The 2023 table is led by the United States at 861,867 tonnes, with China second at 531,718 and Brazil third at 96,513. South Africa and Venezuela complete the top five at 78,588 and 68,225 tonnes, respectively.

The top three reporters accounted for 58.2 percent of the listed total, the top five 64.0 percent and the top ten 74.5 percent. Per capita, Kuwait's 22.31 grams per person per day from 39,405 tonnes leads Libya at 20.64 grams.

At 22.31 grams per day, Kuwait's supply works out to about 8.1 kilograms of maize oil per person per year, against about 2.5 kilograms for the United States.

The Listed Total Fell 2.6 Percent in 2023

Among the 166 reporters with data in both 2022 and 2023, the listed food supply decreased from 2,627,249 tonnes to 2,559,597 tonnes, a decline of 67,651 tonnes (2.6 percent). The two years share the same 166 reporters, with no reporter entering or leaving the comparison. Brazil fell 96,496 tonnes (down 50.0 percent), Tunisia fell 15,355 tonnes (down 51.0 percent), Argentina fell 10,695 tonnes (down 19.3 percent) and Iran fell 9,881 tonnes (down 86.9 percent).

On the gaining side, the United States added 23,281 tonnes (up 2.8 percent), China added 20,962 tonnes (up 4.1 percent), Germany added 17,125 tonnes (up 50.5 percent) and Egypt added 10,541 tonnes (up 184.7 percent). Brazil's fall of 96,496 tonnes is larger than the net decline of 67,651; the four largest gainers, the United States, China, Germany and Egypt, added 71,909 tonnes against it.

The Five-Year Common Total Rose 8.6 Percent

For the 159 reporters with data in both 2019 and 2023, the listed food supply rose from 2,357,616 tonnes to 2,559,586 tonnes, a gain of 201,970 tonnes (8.6 percent). The 2019 universe includes 163 reporters with reported values, while the 2023 universe includes 166; four reporters with a combined 20 tonnes left the comparison, while seven reporters with a combined 11 tonnes entered. The United States added 196,359 tonnes (up 29.5 percent), Germany added 35,516 tonnes (up 229.1 percent), Venezuela added 26,539 tonnes (up 63.7 percent), China added 19,785 tonnes (up 3.9 percent) and Tanzania added 13,872 tonnes (up 49.6 percent). The United States contributes 97.2 percent of the five-year net increase; Germany added the next-largest share at 35,516 tonnes.

On the declining side, Türkiye fell 34,547 tonnes (down 86.2 percent), Mexico fell 26,012 tonnes (down 66.5 percent) and Egypt fell 21,651 tonnes (down 57.1 percent).

The United States rose every year, from 665,508 tonnes in 2019 to 717,800, 792,654, 838,586 and 861,867 in 2023, lifting its per-person supply from 5.40 to 6.87 grams per day. Germany also rose each year, from 15,501 to 51,017 tonnes, about 3.3 times its 2019 level. Brazil's path was a hump instead: 97,707 tonnes in 2019, 195,845 in 2021 and 96,513 in 2023.

What Does the Maize Oil Food Supply Measure?

This article covers the FAO item Oil of maize, commonly called corn oil. Other maize products are therefore not included in this specific figure.

The per-capita value expresses the reported food supply in population terms, showing how much was available per person per day. Kuwait records the highest value at 22.31 grams.

Maize Oil Consumption by Country: Quick Answer

In 2023, FAO data recorded 2,559,597 tonnes of listed maize oil food supply across 166 reporters. The United States had the largest total at 861,867 tonnes, followed by China at 531,718 tonnes and Brazil at 96,513 tonnes. Kuwait had the highest per-capita food supply at 22.31 grams per person per day. These figures represent food available for human consumption rather than a direct measure of how much maize oil people actually consumed.

Methodology

Percentage changes use the corresponding value in the earlier year as the base. Yearly totals use FAO Supply Utilization Accounts food supply quantity (Element 5141, tonnes), while the per-capita figures use food supply quantity (Element 665, g/capita/day) for Oil of maize from 2019 through 2023. The food supply quantity measure represents the quantity available for human consumption during the reference period. It is not a direct measure of the amount actually consumed, because food available for human consumption is not the same as actual intake. No percentage change is shown where the base-year value is zero.

The reporter universe for this item contains 170 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.

Table quantities are shown in tonnes as reported, without additional rounding. The FAO dataset reports food supply quantity in tonnes and in grams per capita per day. The listed total of 2,559,597 tonnes is the sum of the 166 reporters with a reported 2023 value; it excludes aggregate rows and reporters without a 2023 value.
