• That places it 6 of 121 countries with a FAOSTAT figure for 2024, about 3.5% of world production.

  Statistical estimate[1]

• Compared with 2000 (93,000 t), production fell by 25%.

  Statistical estimate[1]

• The highest figure in the series is 110,000 t in 2005, the lowest 17,000 t in 1962.

  Confirmed fact[1]

• FAO counts 2,986,469 beehives in 2024 (imputed value). That is 7 of 98 countries.

  Statistical estimate[1]

• Dividing the two figures gives about 23.2 kg of honey per hive. This is a ratio of two FAOSTAT numbers, not a measured yield: hives are counted at one moment, honey over a year.

  Statistical estimate[1]

• Beeswax production: 5,211 tonnes in 2024 (FAO estimate).
