Tomatoes Consumption by Country
In 2023, China had the largest listed tomatoes food supply among 176 reporters, at 57,452 thousand tonnes, while Türkiye had the highest per-capita figure at 112.77 kilograms per person per year. The 2023 listed total was 176,514 thousand tonnes, with India second at 18,604 thousand tonnes and the United States third at 12,100 thousand tonnes. The series spans 2019 through 2023, although some reporters have missing values in individual years.
China leads the 2023 ranking at 57,452 thousand tonnes, 3.09 times India at 18,604 thousand tonnes. Türkiye tops the per-capita ranking at 112.77 kilograms per person per year from 9,842 thousand tonnes, ahead of Albania at 97.15 kilograms. In 2023, China led listed tomatoes food supply at 57,452 thousand tonnes, with India second at 18,604 thousand tonnes and the United States third at 12,100 thousand tonnes. Türkiye followed at 9,842 thousand tonnes and Egypt at 5,349 thousand tonnes. Türkiye's 112.77 kilograms per person per year lead the per-capita ranking, followed by Albania at 97.15 kilograms. Between 2022 and 2023, listed supply across the 176 reporters with data in both years rose from 172,072 thousand tonnes to 176,514 thousand tonnes, a gain of 4,442 thousand tonnes (2.6 percent), with the United States adding 1,953 thousand tonnes and Spain rebounding 1,195 thousand tonnes. Since 2019, the common-reporter total has grown 3.2 percent, with China's 5,221-thousand-tonne gain accounting for 95.0 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 tomatoes actually eaten. China holds 57,452 thousand tonnes, or 32.5 percent of the 176,514-thousand-tonne listed total. India follows at 18,604 thousand tonnes (10.5 percent) and the United States at 12,100 thousand tonnes (6.9 percent), with Türkiye fourth at 9,842 thousand tonnes and Egypt fifth at 5,349 thousand tonnes. The top three reporters account for 49.9 percent of the listed total, while the top five account for 58.5 percent and the top ten account for 69.1 percent. Among the 176 reporters with data in both 2022 and 2023, the listed food supply increased from 172,072 thousand tonnes to 176,514 thousand tonnes, a gain of 4,442 thousand tonnes (2.6 percent). The 2022 and 2023 listed totals come from the same 176 reporters, with no reporter entering or leaving the comparison. The United States added 1,953 thousand tonnes (up 19.2 percent), Spain added 1,195 thousand tonnes (up 169.0 percent), Türkiye added 875 thousand tonnes (up 9.8 percent), Iran added 712 thousand tonnes (up 36.8 percent), China added 572 thousand tonnes (up 1.0 percent) and Ukraine added 459 thousand tonnes (up 34.7 percent), while Mozambique fell 618 thousand tonnes (down 40.9 percent) and the United Kingdom fell 500 thousand tonnes (down 12.9 percent). For the 176 reporters with data in both 2019 and 2023, the listed food supply rose from 171,018 thousand tonnes to 176,514 thousand tonnes, a gain of 5,496 thousand tonnes (3.2 percent). The 2019 total includes 177 reporters with reported values, while the 2023 total includes 176; Cuba, with 454 thousand tonnes in 2019, had no reported 2023 value. China added 5,221 thousand tonnes (up 10.0 percent), India added 1,217 thousand tonnes (up 7.0 percent) and Angola added 667 thousand tonnes (up 980.9 percent), while Iran fell 1,739 thousand tonnes (down 39.6 percent), Italy fell 863 thousand tonnes (down 55.5 percent), Russia fell 750 thousand tonnes (down 16.1 percent), Egypt fell 727 thousand tonnes (down 12.0 percent) and Spain fell 599 thousand tonnes (down 24.0 percent). China's gain is worth 95.0 percent of the five-year net increase, with Iran's 1,739-thousand-tonne decline the largest offset. Spain's path runs 2,501 to 707 to 1,902 thousand tonnes across 2019, 2022 and 2023. Per capita, Türkiye's 112.77 kilograms from 9,842 thousand tonnes lead Albania at 97.15 kilograms, while China, first by total, records 40.39 kilograms. For FAO Food Balances, the tomatoes figure used here covers tomatoes and tomato products 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 tomatoes people actually consumed. Tomatoes used for other purposes sit 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, China had the largest listed tomatoes food supply among the 176 reporters with reported values, at 57,452 thousand tonnes. India ranked second at 18,604 thousand tonnes, while the United States ranked third at 12,100 thousand tonnes. Türkiye had the highest per-capita tomatoes food supply at 112.77 kilograms per person per year. These FAO Food Balances figures represent food available for human consumption, not a direct measurement of tomatoes 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 Tomatoes and products 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 amount actually eaten, as food can be lost or wasted before it is consumed. No percentage change is shown where the base-year value is zero. The reporter universe for this item contains 177 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 176,514 thousand tonnes is the sum of the 176 reporters with a reported 2023 value; it excludes aggregate rows and reporters without a 2023 value.Tomatoes Food Supply at a Glance

Tomatoes Consumption by Country: Quick Answer
Methodology
Frequently Asked Questions
How much of the five-year increase comes from China?
China added 5,221 thousand tonnes between 2019 and 2023, or 95.0 percent of the 5,496-thousand-tonne net increase. India added 1,217 thousand tonnes against declines in Iran, Italy, Russia and Egypt.
Why does Türkiye lead tomatoes food supply per person?
Türkiye recorded 112.77 kilograms per person in 2023 from a listed food supply of 9,842 thousand tonnes, ranking fourth by total. Albania followed at 97.15 kilograms per person.
Is tomatoes food supply the same as tomatoes 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.
