What the figures say

  • In 2024, Chad produced 1,012 tonnes of natural honey (imputed value).

    Statistical estimate[1]

  • That places it 80 of 121 countries with a FAOSTAT figure for 2024, about 0.1% of world production.

    Statistical estimate[1]

  • Compared with 2000 (939 t), production rose by 8%.

    Statistical estimate[1]

  • The highest figure in the series is 1,055 t in 2014, the lowest 830 t in 1961.

    Confirmed fact[1]

  • FAO counts 123,804 beehives in 2024 (imputed value). That is 56 of 98 countries.

    Statistical estimate[1]

  • Dividing the two figures gives about 8.2 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]
