Skim Milk and Whey Powder Consumption by Country

India led the 2023 table with 423,693 tonnes of skim milk and whey powder food supply, equal to 13.5 percent of the listed total. The United States followed with 382,245 tonnes and China with 289,600, while Belgium recorded the highest figure per person at 19.55 grams per day. The 2023 figures total 3,143,255 tonnes across 162 countries, 161 with values, covering food available for human consumption from FAO Supply Utilization Accounts for 2019-2023.

The nearly flat total hides much larger movements underneath: Mexico lost about 77,000 tonnes in the latest year while India added nearly 71,000. Belgium led per person, far ahead of Estonia.

Key Findings

In 2023, India had the largest reported food supply of skim milk and whey powder at 423,693 tonnes, followed by the United States at 382,245 tonnes and China at 289,600 tonnes. Belgium ranked first per person at 19.55 grams per person per day, ahead of Estonia at 17.53 grams and Mauritius at 13.09 grams. The listed total reached 3,143,255 tonnes across the countries with 2023 values. Among 160 countries with values at both endpoints, the total increased 6.5 percent from 2019 to 2023. These figures represent food available for human consumption in FAO Supply Utilization Accounts and do not measure actual individual intake.

Indonesia placed fourth at 174,220 tonnes, with Algeria fifth at 167,499 and the Philippines sixth at 143,031. Mexico, Italy, Vietnam and Belgium closed the top ten between 83,600 and 130,497 tonnes.

The 161 countries present in both years eased from 3,146,525 tonnes to 3,143,255 tonnes, down 3,270 tonnes, effectively flat, with no entries or exits.

India Drives Five-Year Growth

Between 2019 and 2023, the 160 countries present in both years grew from 2,952,158 tonnes to 3,143,243 tonnes, up 191,085 tonnes, or 6.5 percent.

The Philippines gave up 35,002 tonnes, down 19.7 percent. One country left with 10,918 tonnes, and one arrived with 13 tonnes.

Belgium Scoops Skim Milk and Whey Powder per Person

Belgium's 19.55 grams a day edged Estonia's 17.53, with Mauritius third at 13.09 and Algeria at 9.94. Saint Vincent and the Grenadines sat fifth at 9.76 grams, with Norway at 9.09 and Nauru at 7.76. Bahrain, Bulgaria and Fiji followed below 7.6 grams. India, first by volume, missed the per-person top ten.

What the Skim Milk and Whey Powder Data Covers

The FAO category covers skim milk and whey powder, reported in tonnes and grams per person per day for each reporting country from 2019 to 2023. Annual totals sum reporting countries only.

Türkiye's 7,081.3 percent latest rate divides by 664 tonnes and its 629,016.1 percent five-year rate by eight tonnes. Cuba stopped reporting after 10,918 tonnes in 2019, a mid-table exit without a farewell value.

Methodology

FAO Supply Utilization Accounts designate tonnage for human consumption as element 5141 and daily grams per person as element 665, shown for skim and whey powder across 2019-2023. Percentages use the earlier year's value as the base; no percentage is calculated when that base is zero. The universe counts 162 countries minus aggregates, 161 with 2023 values. Only countries with values at both endpoints enter comparisons. The 2023 listed total is the sum of every country with a 2023 value. A reported zero is kept, a blank is missing, and under-1,000 values keep two decimals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who trails Belgium per person?

Belgium clearly led powder per person in 2023, far above second-placed Estonia at 17.53 grams with Mauritius next best at 13.09 grams a day overall.

How dominant is India by volume?

India was the largest individual supplier by volume in 2023, with 423,693 tonnes, but it accounted for only 13.5 percent of the listed total overall.

How much did Mexico lose lately?

Mexico lost 77,033 tonnes, down 37.1 percent in the latest year to 130,497 tonnes, the deepest single latest-year loss among all countries in the file.

Is this what people actually ate?

No. The figures describe food available for human consumption, rather than measured individual intake. They describe supply in the reference year rather than the amounts people consumed.

Which country contributed most to five-year growth?

India alone added 222,108 tonnes, up by 110.2 percent, accounting for 116.2 percent of the net five-year 191,085-tonne gain recorded overall between 2019 and 2023.
