Data definition
Walnut Production — Walnut production refers to the total quantity of walnuts harvested and produced from walnut trees within a country or region during a specific year. It measures the agricultural output of walnuts, including commercially cultivated walnut orchards and other agricultural production systems. The indicator represents harvested walnut quantities and is generally measured in tonnes, reflecting the scale, productivity, and growth trends of the walnut industry across different regions.
This indicator includes the total production of edible walnuts harvested from cultivated walnut trees, including varieties such as English/Persian walnuts and other commercially grown walnut species. It covers walnuts produced through agricultural farming systems, including orchard cultivation and managed plantations, and accounts for harvested walnut output intended for food consumption, processing, and trade purposes.
This indicator excludes walnut products that have undergone further processing, such as walnut oil, roasted walnuts, packaged walnut products, and other processed food items. It does not include imports, exports, consumption volumes, market value, or sales data. Non-food uses of walnut trees, such as timber production, are also excluded, as the indicator focuses only on agricultural walnut nut production.

The indicator represents harvested walnut quantities and is generally measured in tonnes, reflecting the scale, productivity, and growth trends of the walnut industry across different regions.
Walnut farming in Jordan is influenced by the country’s semi-arid environmental conditions, limited water resources, and dependence on efficient irrigation systems to maintain orchard productivity. During the available period, walnut production remained relatively low, ranging from approximately 7 tonnes in 2019 to 3 tonnes in 2024, indicating fluctuations caused by variations in climatic conditions, farming practices, orchard development, and resource availability. The production pattern highlights the challenges faced by walnut growers, including water scarcity, temperature variations, and limited cultivation areas suitable for walnut tree growth. Despite lower production volumes, walnut cultivation provides opportunities for agricultural diversification and supports local farmers engaged in specialty crop production. The sector is primarily based on small-scale orchard farming, where walnuts are cultivated for domestic consumption and local market demand. Improvements in agricultural technology, adoption of suitable walnut varieties, better irrigation management, and enhanced orchard maintenance practices could contribute to future production growth. The walnut industry in Jordan has potential for gradual expansion due to increasing consumer demand for nutritious tree nuts and opportunities to strengthen local horticultural production. This macro indicator measures only the annual quantity of walnuts harvested from cultivated walnut trees and represents primary agricultural output. It excludes processed walnut products such as walnut oil, roasted walnuts, packaged walnut items, and other value-added products. It also excludes imports, exports, consumption data, market value, and non-food uses of walnut trees, including timber production. Overall, Jordan’s walnut production trend highlights a developing agricultural segment with opportunities for improvement through sustainable cultivation practices, efficient resource utilization, and technological advancement.
