1.8 million Swedish households cultivated some form of edible plant in 2012.
The share of cultivating households differed depending on housing type. While
more than 60 % of the households in detached houses, farms and holiday
cottages cultivated edible plants, the same share for apartment households was
23 %. Just over half of the cultivating households were situated in
Götaland, while a third and a sixth were situated in Svealand and Norrland
respectively. The most common crops were apple, currants,
chives, parsley and tomato, each of which was cultivated by between 15 and
24 % of the Swedish households. Apple was the most popular crop in
Götaland as well as Svealand, while currants were the most common crop in
Norrland. While apple was the most common crop in detached house households,
farm households and holiday cottage households, tomato was the most popular
crop in apartment households. Apple was also the largest crop with respect to
harvested amounts, followed by potato, currants, plums and pears. Just under
14 900 metric tons of apple was harvested in Swedish households in 2012,
compared with the 23 400 tons produced by Swedish commercial apple growers
the same year. When seen from that perspective, rhubarb, currants and
raspberries are all examples of crops that exhibited a larger harvest in the
leisure gardening than in the domestic commercial production. The currant
harvest in Swedish households was more than 17 times higher than in the
commercial production. In some cases the harvest from leisure cultivation
constituted a significant share of the total Swedish consumption of specific
crops. The household harvest of fresh berries amounted to almost 14 % of
the total consumption of fresh berries in 2012. Similarly, the combined
household harvest of apples and pears constituted just under 9 % of the
total Swedish consumption of these fruits. List of tables
