What the figures say

  • In 2024, Azerbaijan produced 4,819 tonnes of natural honey (imputed value).

    Statistical estimate[1]

  • That places it 47 of 121 countries with a FAOSTAT figure for 2024, about 0.2% of world production.

    Statistical estimate[1]

  • Compared with 2000 (550 t), production rose by 776%.

    Statistical estimate[1]

  • The highest figure in the series is 7,445 t in 2022, the lowest 300 t in 1995.

    Confirmed fact[1]

  • FAO counts 583,286 beehives in 2024 (imputed value). That is 24 of 98 countries.

    Statistical estimate[1]

  • Dividing the two figures gives about 8.3 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]
