Data definition
Inclusions and exclusions
Oats Production per Capita — Oats Production Per Capita refers to the annual production of oats divided by the total population of a country, measured in kilograms or grams per person per year. The indicator represents the average amount of oats produced for each individual based on total agricultural production and population size. In Our World in Data, the indicator is presented as a country-level time series, with values reported annually for the selected period. The data provides insights into oat production performance, agricultural productivity, and changes in production capacity relative to population growth.
The data includes the total agricultural production of oats, covering oat crops harvested for food, feed, and other agricultural uses as reported in global food and agriculture datasets. The indicator incorporates annual oat production volumes and population estimates to calculate per capita production values. Our World in Data compiles the data from internationally recognised agricultural statistics sources, including the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), and provides comparable country-level figures across different regions and time periods.
The data excludes oat consumption, imports, exports, processing activities, and market demand. It does not measure individual dietary intake, availability of oats for consumers, or actual domestic supply after trade adjustments. The indicator also does not represent productivity per hectare, farm-level efficiency, or quality differences in oat production. Variations may occur due to differences in agricultural reporting methods, estimation procedures, and population data sources used for calculating per capita values.
About this indicator
Oats Production per Capita — Oats Production Per Capita refers to the annual production of oats divided by the total population of a country, measured in kilograms or grams per person per year. The indicator represents the average amount of oats produced for each individual based on total agricultural production and population size. In Our World in Data, the indicator is presented as a country-level time series, with values reported annually for the selected period. The data provides insights into oat production performance, agricultural productivity, and changes in production capacity relative to population growth.
The indicator provides insights into Turkey’s oat production performance relative to population size and helps assess agricultural productivity, cultivation practices, and long-term cereal production trends.
During the early period, production per capita declined from 3.12 kilograms in 2015 to 2.76 kilograms in 2016 before recovering to 3.01 kilograms in 2017. Production continued improving gradually, reaching 3.08 kilograms in 2018 and 3.10 kilograms in 2019. These changes indicate steady development in oat production, influenced by cultivated area, crop management practices, and annual yield variations.
Between 2020 and 2022, Turkey experienced further improvement in oats production per capita. Production increased to 3.65 kilograms in 2020, followed by a slight decline to 3.18 kilograms in 2021. However, production increased significantly to 4.19 kilograms in 2022, reflecting improved agricultural conditions, stronger crop performance, and favourable production factors.
In recent years, oats production per capita reached 4.70 kilograms in 2023, the highest level recorded during the period, before slightly declining to 4.46 kilograms in 2024. Despite this minor reduction, production remained significantly higher than the beginning of the decade, demonstrating continued strength in Turkey’s oat production sector.
Overall, the dataset highlights Turkey’s improving oats production per capita trend between 2015 and 2024. It provides valuable insights for analysing agricultural trends, benchmarking production performance, evaluating productivity changes, forecasting future oat production, and supporting agricultural policy, food security analysis, and market research.
