Data definition
Coconut Production — – Coconut Production refers to the total quantity of coconuts harvested and produced within a country during a specified period, measured in tonnes. The indicator reflects the scale of coconut cultivation, agricultural productivity, and the contribution of coconut farming to the agricultural sector. It is used to assess production capacity, food supply availability, and the role of coconut cultivation in domestic and international agricultural markets. The data presented by Our World in Data is based on statistics from the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).
The data includes the annual production of coconuts harvested from coconut palm trees and recorded as primary agricultural output. It covers coconuts produced for fresh consumption, processing into coconut oil, coconut milk, desiccated coconut, copra, and other coconut-based products. The figures represent harvested coconut quantities collected from official agricultural statistics and standardized by the FAO to support international comparison across countries and years.
The data excludes processed coconut products such as coconut oil, coconut milk, copra, desiccated coconut, and other value-added products. It also excludes coconut exports and imports, coconut cultivation area, yield per hectare, post-harvest losses, inventory changes, and informal or unrecorded production not captured in official agricultural statistics. Other tropical crops and oil-bearing crops such as palm oil, soybean, and sunflower are not included in this indicator.

Measured in Million Tonnes, the dataset serves as an important benchmark for evaluating coconut cultivation capacity, agricultural productivity, crop availability, farming efficiency, supply chain development, and the overall progress of Mexico’s coconut agriculture sector. Based on the validated data, Mexico’s coconut production remained relatively consistent throughout the study period, with limited fluctuations and gradual improvement in overall output. Production started at 1.07 million tonnes in 2015 and increased to 1.11 million tonnes in 2016, maintaining the same production level during 2017 and 2018. Output declined slightly to 1.09 million tonnes in 2019 and further decreased to 1.07 million tonnes in 2020 and 2021, reflecting a temporary stabilization period in production. Coconut output recovered to 1.12 million tonnes in 2022, followed by a minor decline to 1.09 million tonnes in 2023, before reaching the highest production level of 1.13 million tonnes in 2024. The overall trend indicates a stable production environment with gradual recovery and a slight increase in long-term output compared with the beginning of the study period.
The dataset provides valuable insights into Mexico’s coconut production trends, agricultural performance, and supply-side developments. It enables year-over-year analysis, evaluation of production stability, and comparison with leading coconut-producing countries such as India and China. The dataset can support policymakers, farmers, agribusinesses, food processors, exporters, investors, market analysts, and researchers in assessing production capacity, forecasting future coconut output, identifying investment opportunities, and improving agricultural planning. It also helps evaluate the role of coconut cultivation in Mexico’s agricultural value chain, rural economic development, food processing activities, and sustainable farming initiatives. The information supports strategic decision-making related to production enhancement, resource allocation, and long-term industry growth.
