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, Montenegro's grapes production per capita declined from 39.52 kilograms in 2015 to 26.42 kilograms in 2024, showing fluctuations throughout the period. Despite its relatively small production scale, Montenegro maintains a strong grape-growing tradition supported by favorable Mediterranean climate conditions and established wine production practices.
Production increased from 39.52 kilograms in 2015 to 48.30 kilograms in 2016, reaching the highest level during the observed period. This growth was supported by favorable weather conditions, improved vineyard productivity, and strong performance from major grape-growing areas. Montenegro's vineyards benefit from suitable temperatures, coastal influences, and traditional cultivation methods that support quality grape production.
However, production declined to 37.87 kilograms in 2017 before recovering slightly to 41.85 kilograms in 2018. These fluctuations were influenced by annual variations in rainfall, temperature conditions, and harvest performance. Production continued to moderate, reaching 35.75 kilograms in 2019 and 37.36 kilograms in 2020, as vineyard operations faced changing climatic conditions and production challenges.
In 2021, grapes production per capita increased to 40.42 kilograms, supported by improved agricultural conditions and vineyard recovery. However, production declined to 34.45 kilograms in 2022, followed by further reductions to 25.70 kilograms in 2023 and 26.42 kilograms in 2024. These declines were influenced by weather variability, rising production costs, and adjustments within the vineyard sector aimed at improving long-term sustainability.
Overall, Montenegro's grapes production trends highlight the resilience of a traditional but climate-sensitive viticulture industry. The dataset provides valuable insights into vineyard productivity, agricultural performance, sustainability initiatives, and the long-term impact of environmental conditions on Montenegro's grape production capacity.
