Mixed Grain Imports by Country
Germany bought 5,579 tonnes of mixed grain abroad in 2020 and 121,049 tonnes in 2024, multiplying its intake nearly twenty-two-fold into three-quarters of the table. The figures below aggregate FAO Detailed Trade Matrix bilateral records for item Mixed grain, 2020-2024, pairing import quantity in tonnes with import value in current US dollars. The table lists 14 countries; 8 reported a 2024 quantity, and the 2024 listed quantity total is 161,660 tonnes. The 2024 country list for mixed grain imports runs from the largest listed quantity to the smallest.
Germany was the largest mixed grain importer in the 2024 listed data with 121,049 tonnes, followed by Greece with 26,021 tonnes and Belgium with 13,264 tonnes. Austria ranked fourth with 1,307 tonnes, ahead of Antigua and Barbuda (8.98 tonnes), Serbia (5.02 tonnes), Moldova (4.57 tonnes) and Cambodia (0.22 tonnes). Germany also led on import value at 64,007,000 US dollars, followed by Belgium (10,336,000) and Greece (7,459,000). Germany accounts for essentially all of the 2023-2024 common-universe gain: its 84,307-tonne increase against a net gain of 84,355 tonnes leaves 48 tonnes for the other seven reporters combined. The 2020-2024 picture is even starker, with Germany adding 115,470 tonnes while the net grew 125,686 tonnes, so more than nine-tenths of the four-year expansion sits in one country. Germany holds 74.9 percent of the listed 2024 total, about 4.65 times Greece; the top three together hold 99.2 percent and the top five 100.0 percent. Greece, Belgium and Austria follow inside Europe; Antigua and Barbuda buys 8.98 tonnes from the Caribbean; Serbia, Moldova and Cambodia report single-digit tonnes with full decimal precision. Between 2023 and 2024, the common reporter universe (8 countries with data in both years) rose from 77,305 tonnes to 161,660 tonnes, a change of 84,355 tonnes (109.1 percent). The totals listed for each year were 77,338 tonnes (12 reporters) and 161,660 tonnes (8 reporters). Belgium added 3,000 tonnes (up 29.2 percent). Austria fell 1,951 tonnes (down 59.9 percent) and Greece 991 tonnes (down 3.7 percent). Between 2020 and 2024, the common reporter universe (8 countries with data in both years) rose from 35,974 tonnes to 161,660 tonnes, a change of 125,686 tonnes (349.4 percent). The totals listed for each year were 36,310 tonnes (13 reporters) and 161,660 tonnes (8 reporters). Belgium added 8,196 tonnes (up 161.7 percent) and Greece 2,658 tonnes (up 11.4 percent). Austria fell 646 tonnes (down 33.1 percent) and Serbia 1.74 tonnes (from 6.76 to 5.02 tonnes, down 25.7 percent). Only eight reporters have a reported 2024 quantity. Germany accounts for 121,049 tonnes, followed by Greece with 26,021 and Belgium with 13,264; the remaining five reporters combined just exceed 1,300 tonnes. A reported 0 would denote a nil or negligible flow, while an empty cell denotes nothing reported. Yearly reporter totals sum FAO Detailed Trade Matrix bilateral flows for item Mixed grain, import quantity and import value, 2020-2024. Displayed quantities keep two decimals below 1,000 tonnes (8.98 stays 8.98, 0.22 stays 0.22) and whole tonnes above; values are full current US dollars without inflation adjustment. The 2024 mixed grain imports ranking and shares use 2024 listed quantities; values are not used for ranking. The mixed grain imports table distinguishes reported zero flows from empty, unreported cells. For mixed grain imports changes, only countries with quantities in both endpoint years enter the arithmetic. Partner-derived gap filling and food-aid additions can apply, and unreconciled bilateral pairs mean an import record and its mirror export may disagree.Mixed Grain Imports by Country in 2024

Methodology
Frequently Asked Questions
How can one country be essentially the whole gain?
Germany added 84,307 tonnes between 2023 and 2024 against a net common-universe gain of 84,355 tonnes (about 99.9 percent of it). The other seven reporters netted 48 tonnes combined, so the total simply mirrors Germany.
Why are sub-tonne flows shown with decimals?
Serbia reported 5.02 tonnes and Cambodia 0.22 tonnes for 2024 (after 3.26 and 0.05 tonnes in 2023). Below 1,000 tonnes this dataset keeps two decimals, so micro-flows stay exact instead of rounding to whole tonnes that would erase them.
Why did Austria retreat on both windows?
Austria fell from 3,258 tonnes in 2023 to 1,307 tonnes in 2024 (down 59.9 percent) and from 1,953 tonnes in 2020 to 1,307 tonnes in 2024 (down 33.1 percent). All four endpoints are reported quantities, so both retreats count inside their change universes.
What does this mixed grain imports series not show?
This dataset does not cover production, stocks, domestic use, or processing; it records reporter-level import quantities and values, so its comparisons stay on the import side.
