What the figures say
In 2024, Burundi produced 929 tonnes of natural honey (imputed value).
Statistical estimate[1]That places it 83 of 121 countries with a FAOSTAT figure for 2024, about 0.0% of world production.
Statistical estimate[1]Compared with 2000 (200 t), production rose by 364%.
Statistical estimate[1]The highest figure in the series is 1,000 t in 2023, the lowest 30 t in 2001.
Confirmed fact[1]FAO counts 352,330 beehives in 2024 (imputed value). That is 34 of 98 countries.
Statistical estimate[1]Dividing the two figures gives about 2.6 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: 177 tonnes in 2024 (imputed value).
