Data definition
Inclusions and exclusions
mango production per Capita — Mango production per capita refers to the annual production quantity of mangoes allocated per person, measured in grams or kilograms per person per year. The indicator represents the total mango production of a country divided by its population size, providing a standardized measure to compare mango production levels across different countries and regions. In Our World in Data, the indicator is presented as a country-level time series, showing annual mango production per capita values for the selected period.
The data includes the annual production of mangoes as an agricultural commodity, adjusted based on population size to calculate per capita production. It covers country-level mango production estimates derived from food and agricultural production datasets, with values reported for each year in the selected timeframe. The indicator includes mangoes produced for all purposes, including domestic consumption, processing, storage, and potential trade-related uses. Our World in Data compiles the data from agricultural production statistics, primarily based on Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) datasets, and applies population estimates to calculate per capita values. The measure enables comparison of mango production intensity between countries regardless of population differences.
The data excludes mango consumption, imports, exports, prices, market value, and trade flows. It does not represent the amount of mangoes available for individual consumption or actual dietary intake, as production may be used for multiple purposes or affected by post-harvest losses. The indicator also excludes other fruits and agricultural products outside mango production. Differences may occur due to revisions in agricultural statistics, population estimates, reporting methodologies, and data collection practices across countries. The measure does not directly capture productivity per hectare, farming efficiency, cultivation area, or economic value generated from mango production.
About this indicator
mango production per Capita — Mango production per capita refers to the annual production quantity of mangoes allocated per person, measured in grams or kilograms per person per year. The indicator represents the total mango production of a country divided by its population size, providing a standardized measure to compare mango production levels across different countries and regions. In Our World in Data, the indicator is presented as a country-level time series, showing annual mango production per capita values for the selected period.
During the initial period from 2015 to 2018, production declined from 772 grams to 704 grams per capita, reflecting challenges related to weather variability, farming conditions, and fluctuations in mango cultivation output.
Between 2019 and 2021, production continued to decrease gradually, declining from 706 grams per capita in 2019 to 663 grams in 2021. The reduction reflected limitations in agricultural productivity, changing climatic conditions, and challenges affecting mango-growing activities. Despite these pressures, mango cultivation remained an important agricultural activity, contributing to rural livelihoods and local fruit supply.
From 2022 to 2024, mango production per capita continued its downward trend, decreasing from 651 grams per capita in 2022 to 621 grams in 2024. The decline indicates ongoing challenges related to production sustainability, resource availability, and maintaining consistent mango yields. However, Burkina Faso’s favourable tropical and semi-tropical conditions continue to provide opportunities for improving mango cultivation through better farming techniques and agricultural investment.
In 2024, production reached its lowest level during the review period, highlighting the need for productivity improvements, climate adaptation measures, and stronger agricultural support systems. Enhancing orchard management, improving post-harvest practices, and strengthening market access could support future growth in the mango sector.
Overall, the dataset highlights the gradual decline in Burkina Faso’s mango production per capita and the impact of environmental and agricultural factors on output performance. The trend is valuable for analysing production challenges, rural agricultural development, supply conditions, and future opportunities within the mango industry.
