Methodology

For onions and shallots, dry, tonnage follows element 5141 and daily grams follow element 665 across 2019 to 2023. A change is measured from the earlier year; none is stated from a zero base. Only countries present in both compared years enter a change. A reported zero is not a blank, and blanks never stand in for zeros. India leads volume while Tajikistan leads per person. The file holds 170 countries after removing World, regional and aggregate rows; all but one carry 2023 values. The numbers describe food available for human consumption.

Frequently Asked Questions

How large was India's share of the listed supply?

India accounted for 26.1 percent of the listed dry onion supply in 2023, more than a quarter of the total, ahead of China in second.

What moved the latest total?

India shed 1,740,281 tonnes, down 6.5 percent, exceeding the 660,922-tonne net loss, with Pakistan shedding 363,325 and China 215,495, while Türkiye and Iran added overall.

How did five years net out?

India added 5,616,989 tonnes, over half the 10,927,693-tonne net gain, with Bangladesh adding 1,280,845 and China 871,933 behind it, and Egypt adding 623,524 and Indonesia adding 565,440.

Who led per person?

Tajikistan, at 155.69 grams per person per day in 2023, ahead of Niger at 135.75, while volume leader India sat at only 47.89 grams, with Kazakhstan third at 117.86.

Does this supply equal food eaten?

No. The figures measure food available for human consumption in the reference year, not actual intake, so they describe supply rather than the amounts people actually ate.
