The top two hold 84.1 percent of the listed total, with third and fourth at 164,682 and 76,280 tonnes respectively. China was the largest fresh or chilled duck meat producer in the 2024 listed data with 5,962,500 tonnes, followed by France with 187,810 tonnes and Vietnam with 164,682 tonnes. Hungary ranked fourth with 76,280 tonnes. China holds 81.5 percent of the listed 2024 total. The top three together hold 86.3 percent of the 7,313,396-tonne listed total. From 2023 to 2024 the common reporter universe (79 countries with data in both years) moved from 7,008,191 tonnes to 7,313,396 tonnes, a change of 305,205 tonnes (4.4 percent). The totals listed for each year were 7,009,339 tonnes (80 reporters) and 7,313,396 tonnes (79 reporters); 1 country reporting in 2023 (1,148 tonnes, Austria) did not report in 2024, while no new reporters joined. China added 222,600 tonnes (up 3.9 percent) and France 51,310 tonnes (up 37.6 percent), while South Korea added 13,108 tonnes (up 21.6 percent). Between 2020 and 2024, the common reporter universe (76 countries with data in both years) rose from 6,106,842 tonnes to 7,290,482 tonnes, a change of 1,183,640 tonnes (19.4 percent). The totals listed for each year were 6,107,504 tonnes (78 reporters) and 7,313,396 tonnes (79 reporters); 2 reporters present in 2020 (Austria, 662 tonnes, and Romania, a reported zero) are absent in 2024, while 3 new reporters joined (Bulgaria, 22,900 tonnes, Serbia, 14 tonnes, and Latvia, a reported zero). China added 1,187,500 tonnes (up 24.9 percent), accounting for 100.3 percent of the increase, while Hungary added 12,930 tonnes (up 20.4 percent) and Poland 12,720 tonnes (up 20.0 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 Meat of ducks; fresh or chilled, 2020-2024. For fresh or chilled duck meat production, quantities below 1,000 tonnes retain two decimals and larger quantities are shown as whole tonnes. The 2024 fresh or chilled duck meat production ranking and shares use 2024 listed quantities. In the fresh or chilled duck meat production data, zero means a reported nil or negligible flow; an empty cell means no quantity was reported. For fresh or chilled duck meat 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 long-window gain runs through China?
China added 1,187,500 tonnes (up 24.9 percent) against a common-universe gain of 1,183,640 tonnes, accounting for 100.3 percent of the increase. Hungary added a further 12,930 tonnes (up 20.4 percent).
Was Austria reported in 2024?
Austria reported 662 tonnes in 2020 and 1,148 tonnes in 2023, but has no reported 2024 quantity. Austria is excluded from both change calculations because it has no reported 2024 quantity. Its reported values remain part of the corresponding yearly listed totals.
How did France move in 2024?
France rose from 136,500 tonnes in 2023 to 187,810 tonnes in 2024, a change of 51,310 tonnes (up 37.6 percent). France reports in both years, so the rise sits inside the change universe.
