  • Food and Agriculture Statistics: Food and Agriculture Statistics, part of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, is a specialized agency that leads international efforts to defeat hunger. As an inter-governmental organization, FAO collects data mainly through questionnaires submitted to countries members on a regular basis. From its inception, FAO has strived to maintain the best possible capacity to collect, process, validate, harmonize and analyze incoming data and generate accurate and timely information. Improving the quality, transparency, and access to FAO’s statistical data is an important priority.
