Rape and Mustard Oil Consumption by Country
FAO Food Balances data record 10,930 thousand tonnes of listed rape and mustard oil food supply in 2023 across 114 reporters with reported values. India accounts for 3,500 thousand tonnes of that total, ahead of China at 2,240 thousand tonnes and the United States at 947 thousand tonnes. Canada records the highest per-capita food supply at 14.89 kilograms per person per year. The series spans 2019 through 2023, although some reporters have missing values in individual years.
India leads the 2023 ranking at 3,500 thousand tonnes, 1.56 times China at 2,240 thousand tonnes. Canada tops the per-capita ranking at 14.89 kilograms per person per year from 585 thousand tonnes, ahead of Australia at 12.32 kilograms. In 2023, India led listed rape and mustard oil food supply at 3,500 thousand tonnes, with China second at 2,240 thousand tonnes and the United States third at 947 thousand tonnes. The United Kingdom followed at 650 thousand tonnes and Canada at 585 thousand tonnes. Canada's 14.89 kilograms per person per year lead the per-capita ranking, followed by Australia at 12.32 kilograms. Between 2022 and 2023, listed supply across the 114 reporters with data in both years rose from 9,654 thousand tonnes to 10,930 thousand tonnes, a gain of 1,276 thousand tonnes (13.2 percent), with gains spread across China, the United States, Pakistan, the United Kingdom, India, Canada, Australia and Germany. Since 2019, the common-reporter total has grown 31.4 percent, with India and China contributing a combined 61.7 percent of the increase. These figures represent food available for human consumption in the FAO Food Balances and should not be interpreted as the amount of rape and mustard oil actually eaten. India holds 3,500 thousand tonnes, or 32.0 percent of the 10,930-thousand-tonne listed total. China follows at 2,240 thousand tonnes (20.5 percent) and the United States at 947 thousand tonnes (8.7 percent), with the United Kingdom fourth at 650 thousand tonnes and Canada fifth at 585 thousand tonnes. The top three reporters account for 61.2 percent of the listed total, while the top five account for 72.5 percent and the top ten account for 86.8 percent. The eight largest 2022-23 changes were all increases, led by China and the United States. Among the 114 reporters with data in both 2022 and 2023, the listed food supply increased from 9,654 thousand tonnes to 10,930 thousand tonnes, a gain of 1,276 thousand tonnes (13.2 percent). The 2022 and 2023 listed totals come from the same 114 reporters, with no reporter entering or leaving the comparison. China added 445 thousand tonnes (up 24.8 percent), the United States added 286 thousand tonnes (up 43.3 percent), Pakistan added 160 thousand tonnes (up 84.2 percent), the United Kingdom added 155 thousand tonnes (up 31.3 percent), India added 88 thousand tonnes (up 2.6 percent), Canada added 38 thousand tonnes (up 6.9 percent), Australia added 31 thousand tonnes (up 10.5 percent) and Germany added 30 thousand tonnes (up 6.8 percent). For the 111 reporters with data in both 2019 and 2023, the listed food supply rose from 8,313 thousand tonnes to 10,927 thousand tonnes, a gain of 2,614 thousand tonnes (31.4 percent). The 2019 total includes 112 reporters with reported values, while the 2023 total includes 114; Kuwait, with a reported zero in 2019, had no reported 2023 value, while Barbados, Croatia and Iceland entered with a combined 3 thousand tonnes. India added 941 thousand tonnes (up 36.8 percent), China added 673 thousand tonnes (up 42.9 percent), the United States added 299 thousand tonnes (up 46.1 percent), Pakistan added 150 thousand tonnes (up 75.0 percent), the United Kingdom added 145 thousand tonnes (up 28.7 percent), Australia added 123 thousand tonnes (up 60.6 percent), Bangladesh added 64 thousand tonnes (up 39.5 percent) and Canada added 55 thousand tonnes (up 10.4 percent). The eight largest five-year movements are all gains. India and China together account for 61.7 percent of the net increase. Per capita, Canada's 14.89 kilograms from 585 thousand tonnes lead Australia at 12.32 kilograms, while India, first by total, records 2.43 kilograms. For FAO Food Balances, the rape and mustard oil figure used here covers rape and mustard oil recorded under the Food element as available for human consumption. It represents food available for human consumption during the reference year, rather than a direct estimate of how much rape and mustard oil people actually consumed. Rapeseed used for other purposes sits outside this figure. The per-capita figure expresses the same food supply on a population basis, in kilograms per person per year. A country's total quantity and per-capita value therefore answer different questions: total quantity shows the size of the listed food supply, while the per-capita measure adjusts it for population. In 2023, India had the largest listed rape and mustard oil food supply among the 114 reporters with reported values, at 3,500 thousand tonnes. China ranked second at 2,240 thousand tonnes, while the United States ranked third at 947 thousand tonnes. Canada had the highest per-capita rape and mustard oil food supply at 14.89 kilograms per person per year. These FAO Food Balances figures represent food available for human consumption, not a direct measurement of rape and mustard oil actually eaten. Percentage changes use the corresponding value in the earlier year as the base. Yearly totals use FAO Food Balances food quantity (Element 5142, thousand tonnes), while the per-capita figures use food supply quantity (Element 645, kg/capita/year) for Rape and Mustard oil from 2019 through 2023. The Food element represents the quantity available for human consumption during the reference period. It is not a direct measure of the quantity actually eaten, as additional losses or waste may occur after food reaches the consumer. The reporter universe for this item contains 115 reporters. The tables list reporters only; aggregate rows such as World, regions and China (aggregate) are excluded, while China figures refer to the China reporter. For year-to-year comparisons, only reporters with values in both endpoint years are included in the arithmetic. A zero indicates a displayed value of zero, while an empty cell indicates that no value is available for that reporter and year. Quantities of 1,000 thousand tonnes and above are shown as whole numbers; smaller quantities retain up to two decimals. FAO Food Balances primarily use official national statistics, with some data also estimated or imputed where applicable. The FAO dataset reports the Food element in thousand tonnes and food supply quantity in kilograms per capita per year. The 2023 listed total of 10,930 thousand tonnes is the sum of the 114 reporters with a reported 2023 value; it excludes aggregate rows and reporters without a 2023 value.Rape and Mustard Oil Food Supply at a Glance

Rape and Mustard Oil Consumption by Country: Quick Answer
Methodology
Frequently Asked Questions
Which countries recorded the largest increases in rape and mustard oil food supply?
Between 2022 and 2023, all eight of the largest single-year movements were gains, led by China at 445 thousand tonnes and the United States at 286 thousand tonnes. The same holds for the five-year window, where the eight largest movements are all gains led by India at 941 thousand tonnes.
Which countries have the highest per-capita rape and mustard oil food supply?
Canada recorded 14.89 kilograms per person in 2023, followed by Australia at 12.32 kilograms and the Czech Republic at 12.22 kilograms. India, first by total, recorded 2.43 kilograms per person.
Is rape and mustard oil food supply the same as oil actually eaten?
No. The FAO Food element measures the quantity available for human consumption in the food balance. It does not directly measure how much people actually ate, because food can be lost or wasted after it becomes available to consumers.
