What the figures say

  • In 2024, Montenegro produced 622 tonnes of natural honey (official figure).

    Confirmed fact[1]
  • That places it 92 of 121 countries with a FAOSTAT figure for 2024, about 0.0% of world production.

    Statistical estimate[1]
  • The highest figure in the series is 1,175 t in 2023, the lowest 173 t in 2010.

    Confirmed fact[1]
  • FAO counts 113,794 beehives in 2024 (official figure). That is 57 of 98 countries.

    Confirmed fact[1]
  • Dividing the two figures gives about 5.5 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.
