Quinces Consumption by Country

Türkiye had the largest reported quince food supply in 2023, at 157,095 tonnes, representing 25.0 percent of the listed total. China ranked second with 99,290 tonnes, followed by Uzbekistan with 87,337 tonnes. Together, these three countries accounted for 54.8 percent of the 627,499-tonne total.

What the Quince Data Covers

This dataset follows the FAOSTAT Supply Utilization Accounts item for quinces from 2019 through 2023. It reports food supply available for human consumption in tonnes and grams per person per day. Annual totals include countries with reported values for the relevant year, while year-to-year comparisons use only countries with values at both endpoints. The dataset contains 121 country rows after World, regional and aggregate entries are excluded; 102 countries have a reported value for 2023. Reported zeros are retained, while blank entries are treated as missing data. Percentage changes use the earlier year's value as the baseline and are not calculated from a zero baseline.

Methodology

For quinces, 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. Türkiye leads volume while Azerbaijan leads per person. The file holds 121 countries after removing World, regional and aggregate rows; 102 carry 2023 values. The numbers describe food available for human consumption.
