Oman and France Record the Largest Declines

Oman's listed food supply fell by 19,456 tonnes between 2022 and 2023, decreasing 44.5 percent to 24,312 tonnes. France declined by 14,299 tonnes, or 85.9 percent, while Thailand fell by 4,917 tonnes, or 6.2 percent, but remained in first place. Guatemala's value dropped by 4,713 tonnes, a decrease of 92.3 percent. In contrast, Angola added 1,869 tonnes, Spain added 715 tonnes and the United States added 673 tonnes. Across the 52 countries with values in both years, the combined total fell from 289,734 to 250,063 tonnes, a decline of 39,671 tonnes, or 13.7 percent. Congo, Honduras, Mongolia and South Korea first reported values in 2023, totalling 7,134 tonnes, of which Honduras accounted for 7,133 tonnes.

Five-Year Growth Remains Modest

For the 44 countries with values in both 2019 and 2023, the combined listed total rose from 243,923 to 249,983 tonnes, an increase of 6,060 tonnes, or 2.5 percent. Angola added 4,403 tonnes, Oman added 4,312 tonnes and the Netherlands added 3,997 tonnes. Thailand gained 3,618 tonnes, while Malaysia and the United States also recorded increases. Pakistan's listed value fell by 17,710 tonnes, or 90.4 percent, and Guatemala declined by 1,555 tonnes. Despite these large losses, the combined total for the common-country group still increased over the five-year period. The data do not establish the reasons for the changes. Kuwait reported 0.50 tonnes in 2019 with no 2023 value; twelve countries first reported values in the window, adding 7,213 tonnes to the 2023 total.

Oman Leads Food Supply per Person

Oman recorded the highest listed food supply per person in 2023, at 13.19 grams per day. Thailand ranked second at 2.84 grams, followed by Honduras at 1.84 grams and Angola at 1.79 grams. Taiwan recorded 1.42 grams per person per day. Thailand led by total volume but ranked second on a per-person basis, illustrating the difference between a country's total supply and its population-adjusted value.

What the Dried Tropical Fruit Data Measures

The dataset covers FAO's "Other tropical fruit, dried" category for 2019-2023. It reports food supply in tonnes and grams per person per day. The dataset includes 61 countries and areas that reported a value in at least one year; 56 have a reported value for 2023. Annual listed totals sum the reporting countries with values for each year, while year-to-year and five-year comparisons include only countries with values at both endpoints. Reported zeros are retained as values; blanks are treated as missing data. Sharp changes in individual country figures should not be taken as proof of a particular cause without supporting evidence.

Methodology

FAO Supply Utilization Accounts record tonnage for human consumption under element 5141 and daily grams per person under element 665, shown for dried tropical fruit over 2019-2023. Percentages take the earlier year as the base, and are not calculated when that value is zero. The universe counts 61 countries after aggregates are dropped, 56 with 2023 values. Only countries holding values at both endpoints enter comparisons. The 2023 listed total of 257,197 tonnes is the sum of the 56 countries with a 2023 value. A reported zero is kept, a blank is missing. These figures describe food available for human consumption and should not be interpreted as direct measurements of the amount people actually eat.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which country ranked first by total supply in 2023?

Thailand ranked first with 74,241 tonnes in 2023, followed by the Philippines and India in the same listed table that year, with the Philippines second.

Which country had the highest supply per person?

Oman's reported supply ranked first per person in 2023, followed by Thailand and Honduras in the same listed table that year, ahead of Angola in fourth.

How did the total change from 2022 to 2023?

For the 52 countries with values in both years, the listed combined total fell by 39,671 tonnes, or 13.7 percent, over the annual comparison period.

Why did Pakistan's value fall so sharply over five years?

Its reported value decreased by 17,710 tonnes between 2019 and 2023. The figures show the size of the change but do not explain its cause.

Do these figures show actual consumption?

No. They measure the reported food available for human consumption in the reference year, not the amount of dried fruit actually eaten by individual people.
