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).
Based on validated Our World in Data statistics, Slovenia's grapes production per capita decreased from 57.08 kilograms in 2015 to 32.06 kilograms in 2024, indicating a downward trend despite the country's long-established grape-growing heritage and strong wine production culture. The decline reflects fluctuations in harvest performance, environmental pressures, and adjustments within the vineyard sector.
Production declined from 57.08 kilograms in 2015 to 45.98 kilograms in 2016 and further to 43.36 kilograms in 2017, mainly due to changing weather conditions, vineyard productivity variations, and regional differences in grape output. Slovenia's major wine-growing regions, including Podravje, Posavje, and Primorska, continued to support production through traditional vineyard practices, improved cultivation methods, and investments in sustainable farming techniques.
Production recovered strongly in 2018, reaching 61.43 kilograms per capita, the highest level during the observed period. This improvement was supported by favorable growing conditions, stronger harvest performance, and improved vineyard management. However, production declined to 50.49 kilograms in 2019 and remained relatively stable at 49.36 kilograms in 2020 before decreasing to 39.89 kilograms in 2021. These reductions were influenced by climate variability, changing rainfall patterns, production costs, and challenges affecting vineyard efficiency.
Production continued to decline to 38.71 kilograms in 2022, 37.16 kilograms in 2023, and 32.06 kilograms in 2024, reflecting ongoing environmental pressures and lower production volumes. Overall, Slovenia's grapes production trends highlight the challenges faced by smaller European viticulture markets. The dataset provides valuable insights into vineyard productivity, climate adaptation, agricultural sustainability, and the future development of Slovenia's grape production sector.
