Almond production refers to the annual output of almonds harvested within a country, measured in tonnes or metric tons.
Azerbaijan Almond Production was 3.58 Thousand Tonnes in 2024, down 15.5% on 2023. Azerbaijan Almond Production (2015–2024): Azerbaijan experienced substantial changes in almond production between 2015 and 2024, demonstrating a period of rapid expansion after several years of relatively modest output. Production remained close to 1.0 thousand tonnes between 2015 and 2019 before increasing sharply from 2020 onward.
Azerbaijan Almond Production moved from 1.10 Thousand Tonnes in 2015 to 3.58 Thousand Tonnes in 2024 (+225.3%), an average of +14% a year. The series high was 5.32 Thousand Tonnes in 2022 and the low 0.916 Thousand Tonnes in 2019.
The gap between the series high (2022) and low (2019) is 4.40 Thousand Tonnes. The sharpest single-year move was +112.1% in 2021.
Among the 31 countries in this dataset, Azerbaijan ranks 22 for 2024, behind U.S. (2,000 Thousand Tonnes) and Australia (370 Thousand Tonnes). It accounts for 0.1% of the global total in 2024.

Data definition
Almond Production — Almond production refers to the annual output of almonds harvested within a country, measured in tonnes or metric tons. The indicator captures the quantity of almonds produced during a given year and provides a time series of national production levels. It reflects agricultural output from almond orchards intended for commercial, industrial, and agricultural use. Production statistics are compiled from international agricultural databases and official national reporting agencies, providing a standardized measure for comparing almond production across countries and over time.
The indicator includes harvested almonds produced from cultivated almond trees during the reporting year, regardless of whether the almonds are sold domestically, exported, or processed into products such as almond kernels, almond flour, almond milk, or almond oil. It covers commercial agricultural production reported by official statistical authorities and international organizations, including FAO and other recognized agricultural data sources. The figures represent gross production before processing and are reported for the selected country and reference period.
The indicator excludes imports, exports, stocks, consumption, trade values, prices, and post-harvest processing activities. It does not account for almond-derived products after processing, production losses occurring after harvest, or almonds harvested from wild or non-commercial sources unless included in official national statistics. The data also excludes forecasts, estimated future production, and production outside the selected country's geographical boundaries.

The indicator captures the quantity of almonds produced during a given year and provides a time series of national production levels. It reflects agricultural output from almond orchards intended for commercial, industrial, and agricultural use. Production statistics are compiled from international agricultural databases and official national reporting agencies, providing a standardized measure for comparing almond production across countries and over time.
Output rose from approximately 1.47 thousand tonnes in 2020 to more than 3.1 thousand tonnes in 2021, reaching a peak of around 5.32 thousand tonnes in 2022. Although production declined slightly during 2023 and 2024, remaining above 3.5 thousand tonnes, output continued to significantly exceed earlier levels. The strong growth observed during the decade suggests increased investment in almond cultivation, expansion of orchard areas, improved agricultural practices, and greater adoption of higher-yield varieties. Favorable climatic conditions in several agricultural regions have also supported the development of commercial almond production. Government initiatives promoting agricultural diversification and rural development may have further contributed to increased cultivation. Despite recent declines from the 2022 peak, Azerbaijan's almond industry remains substantially larger than it was at the beginning of the period, indicating structural improvements rather than temporary fluctuations alone. Continued investment in irrigation, modern orchard management, pest control, and post-harvest processing could further strengthen production capacity and improve product quality. Expanding export opportunities and value-added processing industries may also support future sector growth. Overall, the 2015–2024 production trend reflects Azerbaijan's successful expansion of almond production, highlighting the country's growing role within the regional almond industry while demonstrating continued opportunities for productivity improvements and market development.
