Data definition
Inclusions and exclusions
Grapes Production per Capita — Grapes production per capita refers to the annual production of grapes allocated on a per-person basis, measured in kilograms per person. The indicator represents the average amount of grapes produced within a country relative to its population size during a given year. In Our World in Data, the metric is presented as country-level production data over time, allowing comparison of grape production intensity across countries and years. The data is derived from global food and agriculture statistics compiled from sources such as the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).
The data includes the total production of grapes from agricultural activities within each country, converted into a per capita measure using the corresponding population estimates. It covers grapes produced for all major uses, including fresh consumption, processing into wine, juice, raisins, and other grape-based products, as classified under agricultural production statistics. The indicator includes annual production values reported for each country and year, adjusted by population to enable cross-country comparison.
The data excludes grape imports, exports, domestic consumption levels, and trade-related activities. It does not represent the amount of grapes available for consumers, as production may be used for processing, storage, animal feed, losses, or industrial purposes. The indicator also excludes production of other fruits and crops outside grapes and does not measure yield efficiency, cultivated area, farmer income, or market value. Differences may occur due to estimation methods, reporting gaps, or revisions in agricultural and population statistics.
About this indicator
Grapes Production per Capita — Grapes production per capita refers to the annual production of grapes allocated on a per-person basis, measured in kilograms per person. The indicator represents the average amount of grapes produced within a country relative to its population size during a given year. In Our World in Data, the metric is presented as country-level production data over time, allowing comparison of grape production intensity across countries and years. The data is derived from global food and agriculture statistics compiled from sources such as the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).
According to validated Our World in Data statistics, Croatia's grapes production per capita declined from 36.86 kilograms in 2015 to 25.36 kilograms in 2024, showing fluctuations throughout the decade. Despite this decline, Croatia maintains a strong grape-growing heritage supported by diverse wine regions, favorable growing conditions, and established vineyard cultivation practices.
Production decreased from 36.86 kilograms in 2015 to 29.89 kilograms in 2016 and further to 28.51 kilograms in 2017, mainly due to variations in weather conditions, vineyard yields, and regional harvest performance. Croatia's major wine-producing areas, including Istria, Dalmatia, Slavonia, and continental Croatia, continued to support production through traditional vineyard practices combined with improved cultivation methods and sustainable farming approaches.
Production recovered slightly to 36.33 kilograms in 2018 before declining to 27.17 kilograms in 2019. It improved to 31.25 kilograms in 2020, supported by better harvest conditions and improved vineyard operations. However, production declined again to 29.61 kilograms in 2021 and remained relatively stable at 30.07 kilograms in 2022 as vineyards faced climate variability, rising production costs, and changing agricultural conditions.
In 2023, grapes production per capita decreased to 24.36 kilograms, reflecting lower harvest performance and environmental pressures. Production recovered slightly to 25.36 kilograms in 2024, indicating gradual stabilization within the sector. Overall, Croatia's grapes production trends highlight the resilience of a traditional but climate-sensitive viticulture industry. The dataset provides valuable insights into vineyard productivity, agricultural efficiency, climate adaptation, and the future sustainability of Croatia's grape production sector.
