Rape and Mustardseed Consumption by Country

FAO Food Balances data record 593 thousand tonnes of listed rape and mustardseed food supply in 2023 across 157 reporters with reported values. Malaysia accounts for 136 thousand tonnes of that total, ahead of Canada at 82 thousand tonnes and the United States at 44 thousand tonnes. Malaysia also records the highest per-capita food supply at 3.86 kilograms per person per year. The series spans 2019 through 2023, although some reporters have missing values in individual years.

Malaysia leads the 2023 ranking at 136 thousand tonnes, compared with 82 thousand tonnes for Canada and 44 thousand tonnes for the United States. Malaysia also has the highest per-capita food supply at 3.86 kilograms per person per year. Its listed food supply was only 1 thousand tonnes in 2019.

Rape and Mustardseed Food Supply at a Glance

• Malaysia had the largest listed rape and mustardseed food supply in 2023 at 136 thousand tonnes.

• Malaysia had the highest per-capita food supply at 3.86 kilograms per person per year.
• The 2023 listed total was 593 thousand tonnes across 157 reporters with reported values.
• Among 155 reporters with data in both 2019 and 2023, listed food supply increased by 241 thousand tonnes, or 68.5 percent.
• The FAO Food element measures food available for human consumption and is not a direct measure of the amount actually eaten.

Key Takeaways

In 2023, Malaysia led listed rape and mustardseed food supply at 136 thousand tonnes, with Canada second at 82 thousand tonnes and the United States third at 44 thousand tonnes. South Korea followed at 23 thousand tonnes and France and Spain at 21 thousand tonnes each. Malaysia's 3.86 kilograms per person per year lead the per-capita ranking, followed by Barbados at 3.41 kilograms.

Between 2022 and 2023, listed supply across the 157 reporters with data in both years rose from 479 thousand tonnes to 593 thousand tonnes, a gain of 114 thousand tonnes (23.8 percent), led by Canada's 40-thousand-tonne increase. Since 2019, the common-reporter total has grown 68.5 percent, with Malaysia's 135-thousand-tonne surge accounting for 56.0 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 mustardseed actually eaten.

Rape and Mustardseed Consumption by Country in 2023

Malaysia holds 136 thousand tonnes, or 22.9 percent of the 593-thousand-tonne listed total. Canada follows at 82 thousand tonnes (13.8 percent) and the United States at 44 thousand tonnes (7.4 percent), with South Korea fourth at 23 thousand tonnes and France and Spain at 21 thousand tonnes each.

The top three reporters account for 44.2 percent of the listed total, while the top five account for 51.6 percent and the top ten account for 64.9 percent. Malaysia's quantity already exceeded 130 thousand tonnes in 2022, so its lead is established rather than new.

Canada Adds 40 Thousand Tonnes as Supply Grows 23.8 Percent Between 2022 and 2023

Among the 157 reporters with data in both 2022 and 2023, the listed food supply increased from 479 thousand tonnes to 593 thousand tonnes, a gain of 114 thousand tonnes (23.8 percent). The 2022 and 2023 listed totals come from the same 157 reporters, with no reporter entering or leaving the comparison. Canada added 40 thousand tonnes (up 95.2 percent), the United States added 18 thousand tonnes (up 69.2 percent), France added 13 thousand tonnes (up 162.5 percent), Tajikistan added 11 thousand tonnes (up 183.3 percent), Saudi Arabia added 6 thousand tonnes (up 100.0 percent), Türkiye added 6 thousand tonnes (up 300.0 percent) and Spain added 5 thousand tonnes (up 31.2 percent), while Germany fell 9 thousand tonnes (down 90.0 percent).

Malaysia Surges From 1 to 136 Thousand Tonnes Since 2019

For the 155 reporters with data in both 2019 and 2023, the listed food supply rose from 352 thousand tonnes to 593 thousand tonnes, a gain of 241 thousand tonnes (68.5 percent). The 2019 total includes 156 reporters with reported values, while the 2023 total includes 157; Cuba, with 1 thousand tonnes in 2019, had no reported 2023 value, while Bhutan and Myanmar entered with reported zeros. Malaysia added 135 thousand tonnes (up 13,500.0 percent from 1 thousand tonnes), Canada added 52 thousand tonnes (up 173.3 percent), France added 17 thousand tonnes (up 425.0 percent), Tajikistan added 17 thousand tonnes from a zero base, Kenya added 15 thousand tonnes from a zero base, Türkiye added 7 thousand tonnes (up 700.0 percent) and Romania added 6 thousand tonnes (up 600.0 percent), while the Netherlands fell 7 thousand tonnes (down 77.8 percent).

Malaysia's trajectory dominates the five-year window: its 135-thousand-tonne gain is 56.0 percent of the net increase, and its 2022 quantity of 135 thousand tonnes shows the surge arrived before the last year. Per capita, Malaysia's 3.86 kilograms lead Barbados at 3.41 kilograms, while Canada, second by total, records 2.09 kilograms.

What Does Rape and Mustardseed Consumption Measure?

For FAO Food Balances, the rape and mustardseed figure used here covers rape and mustard seed 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 of these seeds people actually consumed. Seed crushed for oil or used for other purposes is recorded elsewhere and 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.

Quick Answer

In 2023, Malaysia had the largest listed rape and mustardseed food supply among the 157 reporters with reported values, at 136 thousand tonnes. Canada ranked second at 82 thousand tonnes and the United States third at 44 thousand tonnes. Malaysia also had the highest per-capita food supply at 3.86 kilograms per person per year, followed by Barbados at 3.41 kilograms. FAO Food Balances measure food available for human consumption rather than the amount of rape and mustardseed actually eaten.

Methodology

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 Mustardseed 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. No percentage change is shown where the base-year value is zero.

The reporter universe for this item contains 158 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 593 thousand tonnes is the sum of the 157 reporters with a reported 2023 value; it excludes aggregate rows and reporters without a 2023 value.
