Apple production refers to the annual production output of apples, measured in tonnes or metric tons. The indicator presents country-level apple production statistics and time series, with values reported for each year in the selected period.
Ukraine Apple Production was 1,151 Thousand Tonnes in 2024, down 1.9% on 2023. Ukraine’s apple production remained relatively stable over the period 2015–2024, although it experienced moderate year-to-year fluctuations influenced by climatic conditions, agricultural productivity, and economic factors. Production stood at **1.18 million tonnes** in 2015 before declining slightly to **1.10 million tonnes** in 2016 and **1.08 million tonnes** in 2017.
Ukraine Apple Production moved from 1,180 Thousand Tonnes in 2015 to 1,151 Thousand Tonnes in 2024 (−2.4%), an average of −0.3% a year. The series high was 1,462 Thousand Tonnes in 2018 and the low 1,076 Thousand Tonnes in 2017.
The gap between the series high (2018) and low (2017) is 386.2 Thousand Tonnes. The sharpest single-year move was +35.9% in 2018.
Among the 33 countries in this dataset, Ukraine ranks 13 for 2024, behind China (51,285 Thousand Tonnes) and U.S. (4,923 Thousand Tonnes). It accounts for 1.2% of the global total in 2024.

Data definition
Apple Production — Apple production refers to the annual production output of apples, measured in tonnes or metric tons. The indicator presents country-level apple production statistics and time series, with values reported for each year in the selected period. It represents the quantity of apples harvested within a country under the relevant agricultural crop classification. Statistics are compiled from international agricultural databases and national agricultural reporting systems, including sources such as the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and official country data where available. The figures represent total apple production within the selected country and may include different apple varieties classified under the overall apple crop category.
The data includes harvested apple production from agricultural activities for commercial and farming purposes. It covers apples produced within the selected country and includes all apple varieties reported under the apple crop classification. The statistics account for annual harvested output and provide country-level production estimates across the selected time period. Data may incorporate official national reporting, agricultural surveys, and international estimates where direct reporting is unavailable.
The data excludes production of other fruits, nuts, and crops outside the apple category. It does not measure apple exports, imports, domestic consumption, processing volumes, storage quantities, market prices, or economic value. Differences may occur between sources due to variations in data collection methods, estimation techniques, reporting practices, harvested area assessments, yield calculations, and seasonal adjustments.

A significant increase was recorded in 2018, when production reached **1.46 million tonnes**, representing the highest output during the observed period. This growth was likely supported by favorable weather conditions, improved orchard yields, and better farming practices. However, production declined again to **1.15 million tonnes** in 2019 and **1.11 million tonnes** in 2020. In 2021, output recovered to **1.28 million tonnes**, demonstrating the sector’s resilience despite ongoing economic and logistical challenges. During the final three years of the dataset, production remained relatively consistent at **1.13 million tonnes** in 2022, **1.17 million tonnes** in 2023, and **1.15 million tonnes** in 2024. Overall, Ukraine maintained an average annual apple production of approximately **1.18 million tonnes**, indicating a stable production base despite periodic fluctuations. From a macroeconomic perspective, the data suggests that Ukraine’s apple industry has been capable of sustaining production levels even amid external shocks, including market disruptions and geopolitical uncertainties. The absence of a long-term downward trend highlights the importance of apples as a significant horticultural crop within the country’s agricultural sector. While annual output varied due to weather patterns, harvest conditions, and production efficiency, the overall trend reflects resilience and consistent supply. This stability supports domestic consumption and export potential, making apple production an important contributor to Ukraine’s agricultural economy and rural livelihoods.
