Note: The FAO Rice Price Index is based on 16 rice export quotations. 'Quality' is defined by the percentage of broken kernels, with high (low) quality referring to rice with less (equal to or more) than 20 percent brokens. The subindex for Aromatic Rice follows movements in prices of Basmati and Fragrant rice.

STATISTICAL NOTES

General

    FAO estimates and forecasts are based on official and unofficial sources.

    In all appendix tables, the shaded columns refer to FAO forecasts and other columns represent FAO estimates.

    Estimates of world imports and exports may not always match, mainly because shipments and deliveries do not necessarily occur in the same marketing year.

    Tonnes refer to metric tonnes.

    All totals are computed from unrounded data.

    Regional totals may include estimates for countries not listed.

    Estimates for China also include those for the Taiwan Province, unless otherwise stated.

    ‘-‘ means nil or negligible.

Production

    Cereals: Data refer to the calendar year in which the whole harvest or bulk of harvest takes place.

    Sugar: Figures refer to centrifugal sugar derived from sugar cane or beet, expressed in raw equivalents. Data relate to the October/September season.

Utilization

    Cereals: Data are on individual country’s marketing year basis.

    Sugar: Figures refer to centrifugal sugar derived from sugar cane or beet, expressed in raw equivalents. Data relate to the October/September season .

Trade

    Wheat: Trade data include wheat flour in wheat grain equivalent. The time reference period is July/June, unless otherwise stated.

    Coarse Grains: The time reference period is July/June, unless otherwise stated.

    Rice, sugar, dairy and meat products: The time reference period is January/December.

    Oilseeds, oils and fats and meals: The time reference period is October/September, unless otherwise stated.

Stocks

    Cereals: Data refer to carryovers at the close of national crop seasons ending in the year shown.

COUNTRY CLASSIFICATION

In the presentation of statistical material, countries are subdivided according to geographical location as well as into the following two main economic groupings: “ Developed countries” (including the developed market economies and the transition markets) and “ Developing countries” (including the developing market economies and the Asia centrally planned countries). The designation “Developed” and “Developing” economies is intended for statistical convenience and does not necessarily express a judgement about the stage reached by a particular country or area in the development process.

References are also made to special country groupings: Low-Income Food-Deficit Countries (LIFDCs), Least Developed Countries (LDCs) and Net Food-Importing Developing Countries (NFIDCs). The LIFDCs includes 82 countries that are net importers of basic foodstuffs with per caput income below the level used by the World Bank to determine eligibility for IDA assistance (i.e. US$1 415 in 2002). The LDCs and NFIDCs groups include a list of countries agreed by the World Trade Organization (WTO) to qualify as beneficiaries under the Marrakech Decision on the Possible Negative Effects of the Reform Programme on Least Developed and Net Food Importing Developing Countries. The LDCs group currently includes 50 countries with low income as well as weak human resources and low level of economic diversification. The list is reviewed every three years by the Economic and Social Council of the United Nations. The NFIDCs group includes 24 developing country WTO Members that have notified their request to be listed as NFIDCs and have submitted relevant statistical data concerning their status as net importers of basic foodstuffs during a representative period. This list is reviewed annually by the WTO Committee on Agriculture.

DISCLAIMER

The designations employed and the presentation of material in this publication do not imply the expression of any opinion whatsoever on the part of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations concerning the legal status of any country, territory, city or area or of its authorities, or concerning the delimitation of its frontiers or boundaries.
