What the figures say
In 2024, Serbia produced 14,664 tonnes of natural honey (official figure).
Confirmed fact[1]That places it 26 of 121 countries with a FAOSTAT figure for 2024, about 0.7% of world production.
Statistical estimate[1]The highest figure in the series is 14,664 t in 2024, the lowest 2,561 t in 2008.
Confirmed fact[1]FAO counts 1,171,658 beehives in 2024 (official figure). That is 15 of 98 countries.
Confirmed fact[1]Dividing the two figures gives about 12.5 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.
