Vegetables Primary Production by Country
China alone accounted for more than half of the listed primary vegetables production while adding 15,626,891 tonnes since 2020. The figures below reproduce FAO Crops and Livestock Products records for item Vegetables Primary, 2020-2024, reporting production quantity in tonnes. The table lists 194 countries; 192 reported a 2024 quantity, and the 2024 annual listed total is 1,181,489,767 tonnes. The 2024 country list for primary vegetables production runs from the largest listed quantity to the smallest.
China produced 4.12 times as much as India: 601,279,784 tonnes against 146,001,633, while Türkiye ranks third with 28,895,553 tonnes, 117,106,080 tonnes behind India. The top two hold 63.2 percent of the listed total, with third and fourth at 28,895,553 and 28,382,076 tonnes respectively. China was the largest primary vegetables producer in the 2024 listed data with 601,279,784 tonnes, followed by India with 146,001,633 tonnes and Türkiye with 28,895,553 tonnes. The United States ranked fourth with 28,382,076 tonnes. China holds 50.9 percent of the listed 2024 total. The top three together hold 65.7 percent of the 1,181,489,767-tonne listed total. The common reporter universe (192 countries with data in both years) edged from 1,178,641,820 tonnes to 1,181,489,767 tonnes between 2023 and 2024, a change of 2,847,947 tonnes (0.2 percent). The totals listed for each year were 1,178,870,528 tonnes (193 reporters) and 1,181,489,767 tonnes (192 reporters); 1 country reporting in 2023 (228,708 tonnes, Nicaragua) did not report in 2024, while no new reporters joined. The United States fell 2,871,435 tonnes (down 9.2 percent) and India 2,519,262 tonnes (down 1.7 percent), while Türkiye added 1,658,760 tonnes (up 6.1 percent) and Spain 1,185,470 tonnes (up 10.3 percent). Between 2020 and 2024, the common reporter universe (192 countries with data in both years) rose from 1,140,322,245 tonnes to 1,181,489,767 tonnes, a change of 41,167,522 tonnes (3.6 percent). The totals listed for each year were 1,141,217,950 tonnes (194 reporters) and 1,181,489,767 tonnes (192 reporters); 2 reporters present in 2020 (Palestine, 658,854 tonnes, and Nicaragua, 236,850 tonnes) are absent in 2024, while no new reporters joined. China added 15,626,891 tonnes (up 2.7 percent) and India 10,118,537 tonnes (up 7.4 percent), while Egypt added 3,472,873 tonnes (up 22.3 percent). Percentage changes use the corresponding value in the earlier year as the base. Yearly totals sum FAO Crops and Livestock Products production quantity (Element 5510) for item Vegetables Primary, 2020-2024. For primary vegetables production, quantities below 1,000 tonnes retain two decimals and larger quantities are shown as whole tonnes. The 2024 primary vegetables production ranking and shares use 2024 listed quantities. In the primary vegetables production data, zero means a reported nil or negligible flow; an empty cell means no quantity was reported. For primary vegetables production changes, only countries with quantities in both endpoint years enter the arithmetic. Production quantities are reported to FAO by national statistical sources.

Methodology
Frequently Asked Questions
What keeps the 2024 window nearly flat despite big movers?
The United States fell 2,871,435 tonnes and India 2,519,262 tonnes, while Türkiye added 1,658,760 tonnes (up 6.1 percent), Spain 1,185,470 tonnes (up 10.3 percent) and Egypt 646,370 tonnes (up 3.5 percent). The offsetting moves sit inside the same 192-country universe, leaving a net gain of 2,847,947 tonnes (up 0.2 percent).
Where did Nicaragua go in 2024?
Nicaragua reported 236,850 tonnes in 2020 and 228,708 tonnes in 2023, then nothing in 2024. Blank cells mean not reported rather than zero, so Nicaragua sits outside both change universes while shaping the listed totals.
How did Niger move since 2020?
Niger rose from 3,351,696 tonnes in 2020 to 5,691,439 tonnes in 2024, a change of 2,339,743 tonnes (up 69.8 percent). Niger reports in both years, so the rise sits inside the change universe.
