Data definition
Inclusions and exclusions
Oats Production per Capita — Oats Production Per Capita refers to the annual production of oats divided by the total population of a country, measured in kilograms or grams per person per year. The indicator represents the average amount of oats produced for each individual based on total agricultural production and population size. In Our World in Data, the indicator is presented as a country-level time series, with values reported annually for the selected period. The data provides insights into oat production performance, agricultural productivity, and changes in production capacity relative to population growth.
The data includes the total agricultural production of oats, covering oat crops harvested for food, feed, and other agricultural uses as reported in global food and agriculture datasets. The indicator incorporates annual oat production volumes and population estimates to calculate per capita production values. Our World in Data compiles the data from internationally recognised agricultural statistics sources, including the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), and provides comparable country-level figures across different regions and time periods.
The data excludes oat consumption, imports, exports, processing activities, and market demand. It does not measure individual dietary intake, availability of oats for consumers, or actual domestic supply after trade adjustments. The indicator also does not represent productivity per hectare, farm-level efficiency, or quality differences in oat production. Variations may occur due to differences in agricultural reporting methods, estimation procedures, and population data sources used for calculating per capita values.
About this indicator
Oats Production per Capita — Oats Production Per Capita refers to the annual production of oats divided by the total population of a country, measured in kilograms or grams per person per year. The indicator represents the average amount of oats produced for each individual based on total agricultural production and population size. In Our World in Data, the indicator is presented as a country-level time series, with values reported annually for the selected period. The data provides insights into oat production performance, agricultural productivity, and changes in production capacity relative to population growth.
The indicator provides insight into Kazakhstan’s agricultural productivity, oat production efficiency, and crop output relative to population size. It helps assess changes in cultivation patterns, farming conditions, and long-term cereal production performance.
During the early period, oats production per capita increased significantly from 13.48 kilograms in 2015 to 18.26 kilograms in 2016, indicating improved production performance. However, production declined to 15.26 kilograms in 2017 before recovering to 17.75 kilograms in 2018. In 2019, production decreased again to 13.90 kilograms, reflecting annual variations in crop yields, weather conditions, and agricultural productivity. These fluctuations demonstrate the sensitivity of oat production to environmental conditions and changes in farming practices.
Between 2020 and 2022, Kazakhstan experienced a declining production trend. Oats production per capita decreased from 12.33 kilograms in 2020 to 9.23 kilograms in 2021, the lowest level recorded during the period. Production recovered slightly to 11.43 kilograms in 2022, indicating gradual improvement after a period of reduced output. Changes in harvested area, climatic conditions, and crop performance may have influenced these movements.
In recent years, production increased to 7.36 kilograms in 2023 before recovering strongly to 16.02 kilograms in 2024. The latest increase highlights improved production conditions and stronger oat output compared with the previous year.
Overall, the dataset highlights the variable nature of Kazakhstan’s oats production per capita between 2015 and 2024. It provides valuable insights for analysing agricultural trends, benchmarking production performance, evaluating productivity changes, forecasting future oat production, and supporting agricultural policy, food security analysis, and market research related to cereal crop production.
