the answer is not nearly as much as people would imagine. the truth is the majority of the planets plant based oxygen production/carbon neutralization comes from ocean based blooms.
Forest as such produce around 25% on average but you should also consider that the Taiga forest for example (that nobody ever talks about) absorbs more carbon and produces more oxygen than all the other temperate and tropical forests on the planet combined. This probably doesn't sit too well with Amazon conservationists but they should realize and focus on the real ecological damage done by deforestation there - which certainly ISN'T large scale oxygen depletion.

How much oxygen does the Amazon produce yearly?
0.01 percent of the worlds oxygen is from the amazon
How much oxygen does one rainforest provide for the world?
All the Rainforests in the world combined accounts for it making 28% of the World's oxygen, and not only that, Rainforests are the World's biggest Pharmacy - with most of its plants being natural medicine.
Which of the following biomes receives at least 50 inches of rain per year is warm yearround and is usually found near the equator?
Tropical rainforestExplanation...Tropical rainforests are warm, wet environments typically located near the equator. They can receive as much as 400 inches of rain per year. The temperature remains warm (70°F to 85°F on average) all day long and year-round. Tropical rainforests produce 40% of the Earth's oxygen.-------------------------------------
How much oxygen is produced every year but the rainforests?
Most of our oxygen is produced not by plants, but by oceanic plankton. [Coccoliths are worth a search in your favorite interweb data resource.] And as far as the trees are concerned, the boreal forests are much larger than the tropical rainforest, but obviously mainly in the north. Can't give you any numbers on O2.
Is helium used for anything?
Helium is used to fill airships, balloons and helium is pumped into oxygen tanks for divers.
How much of the worlds oxygen do rain forests produce?
About 20%
How much oxygen does the Amazon produce yearly?
0.01 percent of the worlds oxygen is from the amazon
What is the place with the most oxygen on earth?
The pacific ocean. Green algae in the oceans produce the majority of the Earth's oxygen. The rainforests add a much smaller amount.

How much oxygen it there in the worlds air?
Air is approximately 20% Oxygen.
How much of the worlds beef does Australia produce?
76%
How much percent does the oceans produce worlds oxygen?
Current thinking places it at between 50 to 85 percent, depending on time of year and the state of phytoplankton bloom.
How much oxygen do phytoplakton produce?
About 60% of our oxygen is produced by phytoplakton.
How much of earth's oxygen comes from rainforest?
Actually, rainforests (or any other type of forest) are not a source of net oxygen production. As vegetation grows it creates oxygen from CO2. The carbon is used to build the plant and the oxygen is released, but, when a plant dies the opposite happens. As it decomposes it produces CO2 and absorbs oxygen as the carbon in the plant recombines with the oxygen. In a mature forest, as rainforests are, the growth and decay are in balance and the net production of oxygen is zero. As a forest grows carbon accumulates in its plant material, but, as deforestation occurs there is a net loss of plant material and CO2 is released. The myth that rainforests produce "28% of the world's oxygen" simply is not true.
