FAOSTAT - Food and agriculture data

FAOSTAT provides free access to food and agriculture data for over 245 countries and territories and covers all FAO regional groupings from 1961 to the most recent year available.



The database contains many different datasets relevant for the agricultural sector. Amongst others there are data on production of crops, animals and products made thereof. In foodbalances these production and trade statistics are combined. Also inputs for agricultural production, like fertilizers, pesticides, land and employment are reported. The database also contains environmental data like emissions from agricultural processes, water use and soil erosion etc.
