Global meat production has increased rapidly over the past 50 years. According to Our World in Data, meat production has more than quintupled since 1961, reaching around 361 million tonnes in 2022. [1] The most popular meat globally is poultry, followed by pork, beef and mutton. Over 90 billion animals are slaughtered each year for meat. [2]
Production of some products is highly concentrated in a few countries, China, the leading producer of wheat and ramie in 2013, produces 95% of the world's ramie fiber but only 17% of the world's wheat.

[94] [95] In 2023, China produced more pork than any other country, 55 million tonnes, followed by the European Union with 22.8 million tonnes and the United States with 12.5 million tonnes. Global production in 2023 was 120 million tonnes. [96]
