Other Nuts in Shell n.e.c. Consumption by Country
Key Takeaway
Mexico had the largest food supply of other nuts in shell in 2023, with 117,847 tonnes, equal to 19.9 percent of the reported total. Indonesia and Ethiopia ranked second and third, while Albania had the highest supply per person at 11.65 grams per person per day. The United States moved from zero to fourth place in a single year. These figures represent food available for human consumption, not the amount actually eaten.
The United States took fourth place and Guatemala fifth at 27,007, with China sixth (26,011), Tanzania seventh (25,041), South Africa eighth (16,624), Albania ninth (11,953) and Syria tenth (11,842). The leading three held 43.5 percent of supply. Mexico's total was 1.40 times Indonesia's. Across the 151 countries with values in both 2022 and 2023, supply rose 5.1 percent, from 562,241 tonnes to 590,883, a gain of 28,642 tonnes. The United States' 48,418-tonne entry exceeded the whole net rise, so losses elsewhere pulled it back; South Africa shed 18,526 tonnes and Australia 4,225. Mexico added 6,918 tonnes and Russia 4,483. Of the 148 countries reporting in both 2019 and 2023, the total climbed 11.8 percent, from 528,257 tonnes to 590,672, a gain of 62,415 tonnes. The United States contributed 77.6 percent of that rise after its jump from a zero base, and South Africa 23.0 percent. India's 13,294-tonne fall and Nepal's 10,939 both offset part of the gain. Three countries entered and six left; the newcomers carried 211.31 tonnes in 2023 against 196.93 tonnes for the leavers. Albania headed the per-person column at 11.65 grams a day, ahead of Maldives at 10.80 and Kiribati at 5.67. Guatemala (4.08) and Greece (2.51) followed. Albania and Mexico are the only countries appearing in both the volume top ten and the per-person top ten, so here the two rankings diverge sharply. This category covers other nuts in shell that are not classified under the named nut categories, and it excludes wild edible nuts and groundnuts. A country's figure represents food available for human consumption in the reference year rather than a farm production total. The grams-per-person figure expresses that supply relative to the country's population. The United States changed the five-year picture more than any other country, moving from zero in 2019 through 2022 to fourth place in 2023. South Africa's own pattern was volatile, climbing from 2,273 tonnes in 2019 to 35,150 in 2022 before halving to 16,624. India faded in stages, from 13,317 tonnes in 2019 through 600.61 in 2021 to 22.50 in 2023, and Nepal went to zero after holding 10,939 tonnes in 2019. The volume column holds FAO's food supply quantity for this residual nut item, element 5141, for 2019 through 2023; the grams-per-person column holds element 665 over the same years. A percentage is measured against the earlier year of a pair, and none appears when that earlier value is zero, which is why the United States shows no percentage. Only countries reporting in both years of a comparison are counted. A zero and a blank carry distinct meanings and are never treated as one. The numbers describe food available for human consumption, not what people actually ate. Of the 158 countries, world, regional and China aggregate rows are removed and China is a single row; 151 hold a 2023 value. Compiled by StatsGeo from FAO FAOSTAT.What Changed for Other Nuts in Shell

Methodology
Frequently Asked Questions
Which country had the largest supply of other nuts in shell in 2023?
Mexico, with 117,847 tonnes, equal to 19.9 percent of the reported total, ahead of Indonesia at 84,118 tonnes and Ethiopia at 54,836.
How much other nuts in shell supply was reported in 2023?
The 151 countries with a 2023 value reported a combined supply 5.1 percent above the 2022 figure, a gain of 28,642 tonnes across the year.
How did the United States enter this table?
The United States reported nothing through 2022, then 48,418 tonnes in 2023, the largest single increase; with a zero base, no percentage applies.
Is this what people actually eat?
No. The figures measure food available for human consumption, not what people actually eat, so the rankings reflect food supply rather than the amount consumed in a diet.
Why is Albania first per person but not by volume?
Albania's 11,953 tonnes translate into the table's highest per-person supply, at 11.65 grams per person per day, because that supply serves a much smaller population than Mexico's.
