According to data from the National Statistics Institute (INE), Portugal registered historic results in agricultural production in 2024, with olive oil reaching its second-highest output ever and almond production hitting a new national record.
The country produced 180,000 tonnes of olive oil, the second-largest harvest ever recorded, driven largely by the maturity of intensive olive groves in the Alentejo region. Meanwhile, almond production soared to 91,000 tonnes, setting an all-time national record and cementing Portugal’s position as the second-largest almond producer in the European Union.
