Low-Income Economies: In these graphs there are classified all economies according to their Gross National Income per capita (using the World
GNI per capita of $1,045 or less (Afghanistan, Burkina Faso, Kenya, Zimbabwe…) Bank Atlas method).
In 2006, middle-income countries (MIC) represented the 57 percent of the world tree nut production, 37
Middle-Income Economies: percentage points more than high-income countries (HIC). That was the largest difference between both income
(includes both Lower-Middle-Income Economies and Upper-Middle-Income Economies) groups in the last decade. But from that year, the trend changed, MIC followed a negative trend and, in 2011, HIC
$1,046 to $12,746 (China, Cote d’Ivoire, India, South Africa…) ranked first in the world production of tree nuts. From there, the situation changed again, and, in this season 2015/16,
MIC led again the production market, representing 51 percent of the world tree nut production.
High-Income Economies:
Total consumption of tree nuts has grown by 59 percent over the last ten years. Almonds registered the highest
$12,746 or more (Australia, Chile, Europe, USA…)
growth. Pecans (70 percent), cashews (60 percent) and macadamias (59 percent) followed almonds as the tree nuts
that experienced the most significant growth in the last 10 years.
HIC led the consumption of tree nuts, accounting for 56 percent of the world total. It should be noted that HIC
have increased 17% their consumption of tree nuts in only 5 years. It is worth stressing that MIC have doubled their
consumption of tree nuts in the last decade.

PRODUCTION World production of Amazonia (Brazil) nuts
2015 ESTIMATED BRAZIL NUT PRODUCTION
KERNEL BASIS / METRIC TONS
in 2015/16 was almost 30,000 metric tons
(kernel basis). Bolivia accounted for 22,000 MT, 3,465
representing the 73% of world production, followed
Bolivia 73%
by Peru with 4,500 MT (15% share) and Brazil with
4,500 Peru 15%
almost 3,500 MT (12% share).
Brazil 12%

The Amazonia (Brazil) nut is the most economically


important plan product that is harvested sustainably
in the Amazonian rain forest. Close to 70 percent of
the world’s supply comes from the Pando region, an 22,000
area that only represents 3 percent of the Amazon
forest.
