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, Kazakhstan recorded mustard seed production per capita of 635.42 grams in 2015, which declined to 402.37 grams in 2016 before recovering strongly to 810.69 grams in 2017. By 2024, production increased further to 900.45 grams, indicating improved production performance despite variations throughout the period.
During the early period from 2015 to 2018, Kazakhstan experienced significant fluctuations in mustard seed production per capita. After the decline recorded in 2016, production increased sharply in 2017 and reached 2,413.52 grams in 2018, representing the highest level during the observed period. These changes highlight the influence of agricultural cycles, cultivated area expansion, yield variations, and seasonal conditions on mustard seed output. The strong increase in 2018 suggests favourable production conditions and improved crop performance.
Between 2019 and 2021, Kazakhstan’s mustard seed production per capita declined from 667.87 grams in 2019 to 426.40 grams in 2021. This reduction indicates short-term production challenges, which may have been influenced by variations in weather conditions, farming inputs, market factors, and changes in agricultural activities. However, production remained active throughout this period, demonstrating continued cultivation potential.
From 2022 onward, Kazakhstan recorded a gradual recovery, increasing from 547.07 grams in 2022 to 711.30 grams in 2023 and 900.45 grams in 2024. This upward movement indicates strengthening production capacity and improved output levels in recent years.
Kazakhstan’s mustard seed production per capita dataset highlights a dynamic agricultural trend with periods of expansion, decline, recovery. The indicator provides valuable insights for evaluating crop performance, benchmarking production efficiency, analysing regional agricultural trends, and forecasting future mustard seed supply potential. It supports market research, agricultural planning, and comparative analysis within the global mustard seed sector.
