Yearly data from 1961 to 2024, from the World Bank.
Bahrain's arable land (hectares) was 2,100 in 2024, the latest year in the World Bank's World Development Indicators. That is up 0.96% from 2,080 in 2014 (0.1% a year on average, compounded).
| Value | Year | |
|---|---|---|
| Latest | 2,100 | 2024 |
| Five years earlier | 2,100 | 2019 |
| Ten years earlier | 2,080 | 2014 |
| Highest | 2,100 | 2018 |
| Lowest | 2,000 | 1961 |
| Average since 2015 | 2,096 | 2015–2024 |
| First recorded | 2,000 | 1961 |
Over five years it is unchanged at from 2,100 in 2019. Since 1961 it is up 5% from 2,000 in 1961 (0.08% a year on average, compounded).
In 2024, Bahrain's arable land (hectares) did not change 0% on 2023 (from 2,100 to 2,100).
Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1994 to 2023), the average change was +0.2% and a typical year strayed about 0.2% from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.7 standard deviations below that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was 0.5% in 2000. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2015 to 2024 the straight-line trend is upward, about 1.82 a year. A straight line explains 62% of the movement over 10 observed years.
Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.
In 2024, Bahrain had the 185th highest value of the 205 economies reporting that year. Higher is not always better: for some indicators the lowest value is the one to aim for. See the full ranking.
Arable land (in hectares) includes land defined by the FAO as land under temporary crops (double-cropped areas are counted once), temporary meadows for mowing or for pasture, land under market or kitchen gardens, and land temporarily fallow. Land abandoned as a result of shifting cultivation is excluded.
Limitations: The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) tries to impose standard definitions and reporting methods, but complete consistency across countries and over time is not possible. Thus, data on agricultural land in different climates may not be comparable. For example, permanent pastures are quite different in nature and intensity in African countries and dry Middle Eastern countries. The data collected by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations from official national sources through the questionnaire are supplemented with information from official secondary data sources.
