About This Dataset
Vegetable Consumption by Country 2022China leads with 407.1 kg of vegetables per person per year, about 30 kg clear of Albania on 376.8. Both would edge higher in 2023, China to 412.7 and Albania to 382.4, so 2022 sits just below the recent peak. The Balkans are the standout cluster, with Albania, Croatia and North Macedonia taking three of the top four places, reflecting Mediterranean diets and strong domestic horticulture. Central Asia contributes Kazakhstan on 300.8, Uzbekistan on 274.4 and Tajikistan on 256.9, the last of which drops out of the 2023 top ten. No Western European or North American country appears here at all, showing that vegetable-heavy diets follow culture and local farming rather than income.
