Potatoes Exports by Country
France exported 1.17 times as many tonnes as the Netherlands in 2024, yet the Netherlands recorded about $59 million more in export value. The figures below aggregate FAO Detailed Trade Matrix bilateral records for Potatoes, 2020-2024, pairing export quantity in tonnes with export value in current US dollars. The table lists 137 countries; 92 reported a 2024 quantity, and the 2024 listed quantity total is about 16.9 million tonnes.
France was the largest exporter of potatoes in the 2024 listed data with 3,297,623 tonnes, followed by the Netherlands with 2,821,270 tonnes and Germany with 2,714,316 tonnes. Belgium ranked fourth with 1,010,386 tonnes, ahead of Egypt (898,386 tonnes), Pakistan (752,882 tonnes), China (626,679 tonnes) and the United States (587,453 tonnes). On export value, the Netherlands led at 1,441,410,000 US dollars, ahead of France (1,382,835,000) and Germany (835,301,000). The dollar ranking reverses the top two: France leads on tonnes (3,297,623 against 2,821,270) while the Netherlands leads on dollars (1,441,410,000 against 1,382,835,000), a difference of $58.575 million. The Netherlands' reported trade value per tonne runs about 511 dollars against France's 419, and the difference reflects unit values inside the reported trade. France holds 19.5 percent of the listed 2024 total; the top three together hold 52.2 percent, the top five 63.4 percent and the top ten 81.8 percent. France, the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium together account for about 58 percent of the listed total; Egypt is the largest African reporter in the listed 2024 data; Pakistan (752,882 tonnes) and China (626,679 tonnes) are the leading Asian reporters in the listed data; and the United States and Canada (586,975 tonnes) are the leading North American reporters in this export table. Between 2023 and 2024, the common reporter universe (89 countries with data in both years) rose from 15,382,711 tonnes to 16,931,313 tonnes, a change of 1,548,602 tonnes (10.1 percent). The totals listed for each year were 15,595,690 tonnes (120 reporters) and 16,933,767 tonnes (92 reporters). France added 474,909 tonnes (up 16.8 percent), Germany 368,520 tonnes (up 15.7 percent) and China 236,726 tonnes (up 60.7 percent). Canada fell 90,396 tonnes (down 13.3 percent), while Ukraine fell from 39,174 tonnes to 2,576 tonnes (down 93.4 percent) and Uganda from 45,078 tonnes to 17,556 tonnes (down 61.1 percent). Between 2020 and 2024, the common reporter universe (87 countries with data in both years) rose from 12,670,641 tonnes to 16,933,112 tonnes, a change of 4,262,471 tonnes (33.6 percent). The totals listed for each year were 14,436,647 tonnes (117 reporters) and 16,933,767 tonnes (92 reporters); 30 countries reporting in 2020 (1,766,006 tonnes combined, led by Iran with 923,331 and Russia with 424,001 tonnes) did not report in 2024. Pakistan added 478,405 tonnes (from 274,477 to 752,882 tonnes, up 174.3 percent). Belgium fell 72,734 tonnes (down 6.7 percent) and the United Kingdom 52,148 tonnes (down 18.4 percent). For this dataset, quantity and export value produce different rankings: France leads in tonnes, while the Netherlands leads in export value. Shares below divide 2024 listed quantities. Yearly reporter totals sum FAO Detailed Trade Matrix bilateral flows for item Potatoes, export quantity and export value, 2020-2024. For potatoes exports, quantities below 1,000 tonnes retain two decimals and larger quantities are shown as whole tonnes; values remain full current US dollars without inflation adjustment. In the potatoes exports data, zero means a reported nil or negligible flow; an empty cell means no quantity was reported. For potatoes exports 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 export entry and its mirror import may disagree.Potatoes Exports by Country in 2024

Methodology
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the Netherlands have higher export value with fewer tonnes?
The Netherlands reported 2,821,270 tonnes (second) and 1,441,410,000 US dollars (first) for 2024, against France's 3,297,623 tonnes and 1,382,835,000 dollars. Per-tonne values of about 511 dollars versus 419 explain the reversal; the dataset observes reported values, not prices.
What happened to Ukraine's 39,174 tonnes?
Ukraine reported 39,174 tonnes for 2023 and 2,576 tonnes for 2024 (down 93.4 percent), after 2,843 tonnes in 2020. Both endpoint quantities are reported for this potatoes comparison, so the change is included; the dataset does not assign a cause.
How should Pakistan's 174.3 percent rise be read?
Pakistan grew from 274,477 tonnes in 2020 to 752,882 tonnes in 2024, an increase of 478,405 tonnes. The rate sits beside a mid-table base, neither tiny nor huge, and belongs beside the absolute gain.
What does this potatoes exports series not show?
This dataset does not cover production, stocks, domestic use, or processing; it records reporter-level export quantities and values, so its comparisons stay on the export side.
