Data definition
Inclusions and exclusions
Mustard Seed Production per Capita 2015–2024 — Mustard Seed Production per Capita refers to the annual production quantity of mustard seeds divided by the total population of a country, measured in grams per person. In Our World in Data, this indicator is presented as a country-level production time series, showing mustard seed production per capita values for each year in the selected period. The metric provides insights into the relative intensity of mustard seed production and enables comparison of agricultural output across countries with different population sizes.
The data includes annual mustard seed production quantities adjusted according to population size, covering country-level mustard seed output reported for the selected years. The indicator includes production of mustard seeds as an agricultural commodity and presents values in grams per capita to measure production relative to population. The dataset is derived from internationally compiled agricultural statistics and provides historical trends to analyse changes in mustard cultivation, production performance, and agricultural productivity over time.
The data excludes mustard seed consumption, imports, exports, trade values, market prices, cultivated area, yield per hectare, and economic value generated from mustard production. It does not measure domestic availability, processing activities, storage, or end-use applications of mustard seeds. The indicator also does not capture non-agricultural factors affecting supply chains. Differences may occur due to variations in agricultural reporting methods, estimation approaches, and data availability across countries.
About this indicator
Mustard Seed Production per Capita 2015–2024 — Mustard Seed Production per Capita refers to the annual production quantity of mustard seeds divided by the total population of a country, measured in grams per person. In Our World in Data, this indicator is presented as a country-level production time series, showing mustard seed production per capita values for each year in the selected period. The metric provides insights into the relative intensity of mustard seed production and enables comparison of agricultural output across countries with different population sizes.
According to Our World in Data, Hungary recorded mustard seed production per capita of 369.85 grams in 2015, which declined to 297.33 grams in 2016 before recovering to 358.18 grams in 2017. The available data indicates short-term volatility while maintaining a relatively stable production level throughout the reported years.
During the early period from 2015 to 2017, Hungary demonstrated consistent mustard seed production capacity despite annual changes in output levels. The decline observed in 2016 may have resulted from variations in crop productivity, weather conditions, cultivated area, or seasonal agricultural factors affecting mustard seed cultivation. The recovery in 2017 indicates improved production performance and the ability of the agricultural sector to adapt to changing cultivation conditions.
From 2018 onward, additional annual mustard seed production per capita data is not available in the dataset through 2024. As a result, the latest production trends and potential changes in Hungary’s mustard seed output cannot be fully assessed from the available information. However, the historical data provides valuable insight into the country’s earlier production capacity and its contribution to European mustard seed cultivation.
Overall, Hungary’s mustard seed production per capita dataset highlights the importance of evaluating agricultural trends through population-adjusted production measures. The indicator provides a useful framework for comparing production efficiency, analyzing crop performance, and understanding regional agricultural patterns. It supports market research, production benchmarking, supply assessment, and future forecasting by measuring mustard seed output relative to population size. Continued monitoring of production data will help identify long-term changes in Hungary’s mustard seed sector and its role within the broader European agricultural market.
