What the figures say
In 2024, Ukraine produced 53,490 tonnes of natural honey (official figure).
Confirmed fact[1]That places it 11 of 121 countries with a FAOSTAT figure for 2024, about 2.7% of world production.
Statistical estimate[1]Compared with 2000 (52,439 t), production rose by 2%.
Statistical estimate[1]The highest figure in the series is 75,600 t in 2006, the lowest 51,144 t in 2002.
Confirmed fact[1]FAO counts 2,166 beehives in 2024 (official figure). That is 91 of 98 countries.
Confirmed fact[1]The honey and hive figures do not fit together: they would mean about 24,695 kg of honey per hive. One of them is probably reported in a different unit. We show both exactly as FAO publishes them.
