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, Greece's grapes production per capita declined from 96.54 kilograms in 2015 to 77.35 kilograms in 2024, showing fluctuations throughout the decade. Despite this decline, Greece continues to maintain a strong grape-growing tradition supported by favorable Mediterranean conditions, diverse grape varieties, and established wine production practices.
Production decreased from 96.54 kilograms in 2015 to 77.38 kilograms in 2016 and remained relatively stable at 76.95 kilograms in 2017. These changes were influenced by variations in weather conditions, vineyard yields, and regional harvest performance. Greece's major grape-producing areas, including Crete, Peloponnese, Macedonia, and Central Greece, continued to support production through traditional cultivation methods combined with improved vineyard management practices.
Production recovered to 86.96 kilograms in 2018 before declining to 75.34 kilograms in 2019. It remained relatively stable during 2020 and 2021, recording 76.25 kilograms and 78.29 kilograms, respectively. This stability was supported by consistent vineyard operations, improved farming efficiency, and continued demand for Greek grape products. Production increased slightly to 78.80 kilograms in 2022, reflecting improved harvest conditions.
However, grapes production per capita declined significantly to 55.08 kilograms in 2023, influenced by unfavorable weather conditions, production challenges, rising agricultural costs, and changing vineyard conditions. Production recovered to 77.35 kilograms in 2024, indicating improved performance and stabilization within the sector.
Overall, Greece's grapes production trends demonstrate the resilience of its traditional viticulture industry while highlighting sensitivity to climate and agricultural challenges. The dataset provides valuable insights into vineyard productivity, sustainable farming practices, production efficiency, and the long-term outlook of Greece's grape production sector.
