Data definition
Inclusions and exclusions
Mushroom Production per Capita — Mushroom production per capita refers to the annual quantity of mushrooms produced within a country, measured on a per person basis. The indicator is expressed in grams per capita (or kilograms per capita where applicable) and represents the average mushroom production volume relative to the country’s population size. In Our World in Data, the indicator is based on FAOSTAT agricultural production data and is presented as a country-level time series, allowing comparison of mushroom production trends across countries and years between 2015 and 2024.
The data includes the annual production of mushrooms reported under FAOSTAT agricultural production statistics, covering cultivated mushroom output measured by weight. The indicator includes country-level mushroom production values adjusted according to population size to calculate per capita production. The dataset captures changes in agricultural production capacity, cultivation practices, and output trends over time. It supports analysis of mushroom industry development, agricultural productivity, food supply trends, and comparisons between different countries and regions.
The data excludes mushroom consumption, imports, exports, and trade-related activities, as it measures only domestic production. It does not represent individual consumption levels, market availability, retail sales, or nutritional intake. The indicator does not include wild mushroom collection unless recorded within official agricultural production statistics. It also does not measure production value, revenue, cultivation costs, or farm-level productivity. Differences may occur due to variations in national reporting methods, estimation procedures, and statistical coverage used by FAOSTAT.
About this indicator
Mushroom Production per Capita — Mushroom production per capita refers to the annual quantity of mushrooms produced within a country, measured on a per person basis. The indicator is expressed in grams per capita (or kilograms per capita where applicable) and represents the average mushroom production volume relative to the country’s population size. In Our World in Data, the indicator is based on FAOSTAT agricultural production data and is presented as a country-level time series, allowing comparison of mushroom production trends across countries and years between 2015 and 2024.
The series high was 1.01 Kilogram in 2023 and the low 0.0596 Kilogram in 2015. The gap between the series high (2023) and low (2015) is 0.948 Kilogram. The sharpest single-year move was +90.4% in 2018. Among the 32 countries in this dataset, Russia ranks 19 for 2024, behind China (34.25 Kilogram) and Ireland (13.35 Kilogram). The global figure for 2024 is 6.32 Kilogram, so Russia is below it.
Russia mushroom production per capita between 2015 and 2024 reflects a significant growth trend, highlighting the expansion of domestic cultivation capacity, increasing investment in mushroom farming, and changing dynamics within the country’s agricultural sector. According to validated Our World in Data (FAOSTAT) data, Russia’s mushroom production per capita increased substantially from 59.60 grams in 2015 to 840.04 grams in 2024. This growth indicates the rapid development of mushroom cultivation and the increasing contribution of specialty crop production within Russia’s food system.
Between 2015 and 2018, mushroom production per capita showed steady growth, increasing from 59.60 grams in 2015 to 66.42 grams in 2016, 110.05 grams in 2017, and 209.56 grams in 2018. This period reflected the early expansion of commercial mushroom production, supported by growing domestic demand, improvements in controlled-environment farming, and efforts to strengthen local agricultural supply chains.
From 2019 to 2021, Russia experienced accelerated growth in mushroom production per capita, rising from 327.24 grams in 2019 to 590.13 grams in 2020 and 760.97 grams in 2021. The increase was driven by the development of modern mushroom farms, increased domestic production capacity, and greater focus on reducing dependence on imported agricultural products. Advanced cultivation methods helped producers improve efficiency and maintain stable supply.
Overall, Russia’s mushroom production sector demonstrates strong long-term growth and increasing importance within the agricultural industry. The mushroom production per capita indicator provides valuable insights into production expansion, agricultural productivity, market development, and the evolving role of mushroom cultivation in Russia’s food production landscape.
