What the figures say

  • In 2024, Guyana produced 90 tonnes of natural honey (imputed value).

    Statistical estimate[1]
  • That places it 112 of 121 countries with a FAOSTAT figure for 2024, about 0.0% of world production.

    Statistical estimate[1]
  • Compared with 2000 (74 t), production rose by 22%.

    Statistical estimate[1]
  • The highest figure in the series is 90 t in 2024, the lowest 19 t in 1973.

    Confirmed fact[1]
  • FAO counts 4,352 beehives in 2024 (imputed value). That is 89 of 98 countries.

    Statistical estimate[1]
  • Dividing the two figures gives about 20.7 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.
