Clement, welcome to SO! Your question is somewhat common, so there are several good solutions available (two linked in the close message). In the future, please make your questions *reproducible*. In addition to the sample code you provided, this includes sample *unambiguous* data (e.g., `dput(head(x))` or `data.frame(x=...,y=...)`) and intended output given that input.

You can use the text() function to add the values above the bars.

Here's how with the VADeaths data used in the barplot helpfile:

data("VADeaths")
mp <- barplot(VADeaths)
tot <- colSums(VADeaths)
text(mp, tot + 3, format(tot), xpd = TRUE, col = "blue")
