What does Tajikistan produce?
Commodities where Tajikistan is a top-ten producer
Tajikistan's largest commodity exports by value. Each bar's share is that commodity's share of world trade in it, not its share of Tajikistan's own exports — the two are unrelated and shown so a bar near 100% marks a commodity Tajikistan dominates globally rather than one it merely exports a lot of.

How long Tajikistan's own reserves would last
Antimony: Tajikistan's reserves are about 3 years of its own output at the current rate (20% of world output, 2.5% of world reserves), against 22 years for the world.
