How to read this table
The list is categorized by country, highlighting differences in dietary habits across nations. Consumption volumes can be compared within a single country over twelve years or between different countries for a specific year. The entire dataset is presented in kilograms per capita, allowing for direct comparison without additional calculations
What is visible in these numbers
Five highest values: Portugal (58), Spain (44), Vietnam (42), Finland (35), France (35). Gap between highest and lowest — 29 times. The top five account for 42.4% of the total for all positions
Observations are annual; total periods 7. 175 of 175 possible values filled (100%), i.e. the table is almost entirely complete
The same indicator for other periods
These series cannot be stitched together Over the common period 2010 values diverge — Rosstat recalculated the indicator using a revised methodology. They cannot be combined into a single chart: a break would appear at the junction, which did not actually occur

Period and application
Statistics are published annually and cover the period from 2010 to 2022. The annual time-series data is useful for econometricians, food industry specialists, and food market researchers. Rosstat data enables the tracking of long-term global trends in seafood consumption
How it is calculated
Noted in the source itself: For all countries except Russia — FAO estimates. Fish and seafood are given in live weight equivalent. From 2014 — methodology change. For Russia — Rosstat data (fish and seafood given in live weight…
1) По всем странам, кроме России, – оценки ФАО. Рыба и морепродукты приводятся в эквиваленте живого веса продукции. С 2014 г. – изменение методологии. По России – данные Росстата (рыба и морепродукты приводятся в живом весе продукции); за 2015, 2018–2021 гг. показатели публикуются с учетом итогов ВПН-2020; 2023 г. – 22,6 кг.
