The FAOSTAT Food Security and Nutrition Dataset provides a comprehensive collection of data related to global food security. It includes a wide range of indicators such as food availability, access, utilization, and stability. The dataset supports policy analysis, monitoring, and the development of food security strategies, helping countries and organizations make data-informed decisions. Key components include:
Food availability: Metrics on food production, imports, exports, and per capita food supply.
Access to food: Economic factors like income and prices, and indicators like food affordability.
Nutrition: Data on food consumption, nutrient intake, and malnutrition.
Stability: Trends and fluctuations in food security indicators, such as food price volatility and availability issues.
This dataset can be used for analyzing trends in food insecurity, forecasting future demand, and evaluating the effectiveness of interventions to reduce food loss and waste.
