Top almond producers

The United States has the highest production volume of almonds of any country worldwide. In the 2017/2018 crop year, global almond production amounted to 1.28 million metric tons, and some 1.03 million metric tons of that volume was attributed to the United States. The European Union was the second leading producer of almonds that year.

Plant-based milks

For individuals following a dairy-free or vegan diet or for those who just want to try something new, plant-based milks are a great alternative to cow milk. Some of the most common varieties are soy milk, almond milk, oat milk, rice milk, and hemp milk. No matter what dietary needs or restrictions one might have, there is a milk alternative out there for you. As of 2016, almond milk is the clear leader of the global dairy milk alternatives market, with a market value of around 1.85 billion U.S. dollars.
