Largest rabbit and hare meat producers by nation, 2024

Top 9 nations by production volume; tonnes, 2024.

What the Data Shows

FAOSTAT reports rabbit and hare meat production by nation for 2024 in tonnes. The ranking compares nine non-aggregate nation rows from the same FAOSTAT source, with no share column because no external denominator is used. China ranks first at 445,128 tonnes, ahead of North Korea at 156,672 tonnes. China’s value is 55.6x the #9 nation, Ukraine at 8,000 tonnes, so the page is best read as a production-volume ranking.

Data notes & caveats

Values are annual production volumes in tonnes. Shares are not included because the page uses a ranked nation comparison rather than a separate global total.

Methodology

The ranking uses FAOSTAT nation rows for rabbit and hare meat, production volume, tonnes and 2024. Aggregate reporting groups are excluded where they appear in the source. Values are ranked from highest to lowest and rounded consistently for display.

Source consistency notes

Rows use the same FAOSTAT Crops and Livestock Products source family, metric, unit and year, supporting a like-for-like ranking across nations.
