For me it was :-

1. Raspberries (only a handful
2. Peas (everything attacked them mice, pigeons & bugs)
3. Onions (White rot  :mad:)

Onions they were so small needed more food
Shallots even worse than onions
Strawberries not tastey and my new plants didn't fruit this year

Wow what a consensus
1. Winter squash very few and small
2. Courgettes not many off the plants
3. Summer sown broad beans chocolate fungus and blackfly

Butternut squash. Zero despite other varieties doing ok.
Overwintering onions planted last year didn't store well.
Rhubarb wasn't at all successful.

No turnips
Not many courgettes
Still waiting for sweetcorn to ripen

Hmmm, where to start:

Apples: 2 (normally prolific) old trees= 1 apple.

Beetroot: Last year good, this year hopeless.

Cauliflower: last year's were lovely and perfectly formed but this year's were tiny and blown before they got going.
