Nine Arrivals Rewrite Five Years

Among the 14 countries in both 2019 and 2023, supply eased 8.4 percent, from 373 tonnes, a loss of 31. Georgia fell to zero from 32 tonnes, and Tajikistan shed 14. Seychelles added 8 tonnes and Maldives matched that over five years, up 47.5 percent, while the Bahamas added 6 from a tiny base. Nine countries joined over the period, adding 45,972 tonnes, led by the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The continuing table tells a small story; the arrivals tell the large one.

Samoa Holds Third

Samoa held third, after 163 in 2022. Its five-year path barely moved, from 173 in 2019. Per person, Samoa led at 2.14 grams, nearly double the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Samoa's 169 tonnes are a rounding error beside 44,897, yet lead per person by a wide margin. Bahrain, fifth at 33 tonnes overall, grew in the latest year and sits at 0.06 grams per person. Turkmenistan shed about 10 tonnes, ending at 6.21 tonnes, almost level with the Bahamas at 6.15.

Samoa Leads Per Person

Samoa's 2.14 grams a day topped the per-person table, ahead of the Democratic Republic of the Congo at 1.16 and Seychelles at 0.40. Maldives followed at 0.11 grams and Bahrain at 0.06. Vanuatu closed the per-person top ten at 0.01 grams. Vietnam, second by volume, sat at 0.03 grams per person. Tajikistan sat at 0.02 grams after its 94.9 percent fall.

What This Category Covers

This page follows the SUA item labelled Other oil seeds, n.e.c. and counts only its rows; World, regional and aggregate rows are not in the table. The "n.e.c." label means "not elsewhere classified" in the FAOSTAT category. The annual listed supply total sums the countries with a 2023 value. Food here means supply available for people to eat in the reference year, not amounts eaten.

Quick Answer

In 2023, the Democratic Republic of the Congo had the largest listed supply of other oil seeds, n.e.c., at 44,897 tonnes, accounting for 96.9 percent of the 46,313-tonne country total. Vietnam ranked second at 1,068 tonnes and Samoa third at 169 tonnes. Samoa led on a per-person basis at 2.14 grams per person per day. Six countries had a positive 2023 value after having no reported value in 2019, led by the Democratic Republic of the Congo. These figures represent food available for human consumption, not actual intake.

Methodology

For other oil seeds, n.e.c., 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. The file holds 24 countries after removing World, regional and aggregate rows; 23 carry 2023 values. Nine arrivals dwarf the continuing table over five years. The numbers describe food available for human consumption. Source: FAO FAOSTAT, compiled by StatsGeo.
