Data definition
Inclusions and exclusions
Almond Production — Almond production refers to the annual output of almonds harvested within a country, measured in tonnes or metric tons. The indicator captures the quantity of almonds produced during a given year and provides a time series of national production levels. It reflects agricultural output from almond orchards intended for commercial, industrial, and agricultural use. Production statistics are compiled from international agricultural databases and official national reporting agencies, providing a standardized measure for comparing almond production across countries and over time.
The indicator includes harvested almonds produced from cultivated almond trees during the reporting year, regardless of whether the almonds are sold domestically, exported, or processed into products such as almond kernels, almond flour, almond milk, or almond oil. It covers commercial agricultural production reported by official statistical authorities and international organizations, including FAO and other recognized agricultural data sources. The figures represent gross production before processing and are reported for the selected country and reference period.
The indicator excludes imports, exports, stocks, consumption, trade values, prices, and post-harvest processing activities. It does not account for almond-derived products after processing, production losses occurring after harvest, or almonds harvested from wild or non-commercial sources unless included in official national statistics. The data also excludes forecasts, estimated future production, and production outside the selected country's geographical boundaries.
About this indicator
Almond Production — Almond production refers to the annual output of almonds harvested within a country, measured in tonnes or metric tons. The indicator captures the quantity of almonds produced during a given year and provides a time series of national production levels. It reflects agricultural output from almond orchards intended for commercial, industrial, and agricultural use. Production statistics are compiled from international agricultural databases and official national reporting agencies, providing a standardized measure for comparing almond production across countries and over time.
Output declined from 70.5 thousand tonnes in 2015 to around 61 thousand tonnes in 2016 before recovering gradually in subsequent years. Production reached approximately 75 thousand tonnes in 2019, reflecting favorable growing conditions, but declined again in 2020 before stabilizing around 70–71 thousand tonnes by 2024. These fluctuations largely reflect variations in rainfall, water availability, and seasonal climatic conditions that influence orchard productivity across Tunisia's almond-growing regions. Almond cultivation remains an important component of the country's agricultural sector, particularly in semi-arid regions where tree crops are well suited to local environmental conditions. Continued improvements in orchard management, irrigation efficiency, and the adoption of improved almond varieties have supported production stability over time. Domestic consumption represents a major market for Tunisian almonds, while exports contribute additional economic value. Future growth may be supported through expanded investment in water-efficient technologies, improved pest management, orchard modernization, and enhanced post-harvest processing capabilities. Strengthening climate resilience will also be important given increasing weather variability. Overall, Tunisia's almond production from 2015 to 2024 demonstrates a resilient agricultural sector capable of maintaining relatively stable output despite environmental challenges, providing a solid foundation for future productivity improvements and sustainable industry development.
