What the figures say
In 2024, Czechia produced 7,418 tonnes of natural honey (official figure).
Confirmed fact[1]That places it 34 of 121 countries with a FAOSTAT figure for 2024, about 0.4% of world production.
Statistical estimate[1]Compared with 2000 (7,553 t), production fell by 2%.
Statistical estimate[1]The highest figure in the series is 11,302 t in 2011, the lowest 4,532 t in 1997.
Confirmed fact[1]FAO counts 510,000 beehives in 2024 (official figure). That is 27 of 98 countries.
Confirmed fact[1]Dividing the two figures gives about 14.5 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: 301 tonnes in 2017 (official figure).
