5 years ago it looks like they were #4, just below the Uzbeks and just above Italy.

Uzbekistan was the 5th largest producer of the world 5 years ago, by being "under the Uzbeks" they couldn't be top 4 because, intrinsically, they were also under Russia, Iran, Ukraine, and Italy depending on the semester.

(on 2017 they Chile was exactly 7th though so my bad on that part)

Ah. I see the problem. I am looking at the chart above which lists just five countries. You are looking at something different I guess since you are mentioning countries not in the chart: Iran and Russia.

So the chart above and what is in Wikipedia are from two different and conflicting sources.
