The following section presents several examples of how to prepare balances for commodities of the crop, livestock and fishery sections and also how ancillary and relevant information available elsewhere can be used to supplement data from official sources relating to production, external trade and utilization in preparing the balances.
The first step in this rather complex undertaking is to make a thorough search for statistical data and to compile them along with other information pertinent to the preparation of food balance sheets. In addition to data regarding production, trade and utilization of food and agricultural commodities available from official sources, a wealth of relevant information and technical expertise is often available from little tapped sources, such as marketing boards, commercial processing industries, extension workers, merchants, agricultural officers, transport enterprises and the like.
In the following illustration of how to prepare the balances, it is assumed that the information listed under Assumptions has been compiled from sources described above. Quantities are given in thousand metric tons and area in thousand hectares. This information will form the basis for the construction of the individual balances. In doing, so care must be taken that for every commodity the balance of the equation is always maintained. The elements of the individual commodity balance do not have any relation whatsoever to elements of balances for other commodities except the element Food Manufacture. The figure shown under this element corresponds to the quantity which has been used for the production of processed products shown separately in the food balance sheet.

Wheat
The data compiled for Production (3790), Change in stocks (-140), Exports (359) and Feed (250) are entered in the line for wheat in the food balance sheet in the respective columns. The quantity of wheat retained for Seed (224) can be estimated by multiplying the seeding rate with the area sown in the subsequent year. The figure for Waste is obtained as 5 percent of the Available supply (3291). Since there is no information as to direct food use of wheat, the balance is completed by allocating the residual to Food Manufacture which is the amount available for milling into flour (2652).
Wheat Flour
Wheat is generally consumed in the form of flour and/or products derived therefrom. Since there is no information available regarding the production of wheat flour this figure can be estimated by applying the extraction/milling rate of 75 percent to the quantity shown under Food Manufacture (2652) in the balance for wheat and entered in the column Production (1989). The extraction rate for flour should represent an overall-weighted average which takes account of flour used for producing different types of bread, cake or other flour products. The rate, however, does not only represent the input/output ratio from wheat to flour but also determines the food composition regarding energy and nutrients which changes according to the type of wheat (soft or hard) and the milling rate.
The data reported officially for Imports (44) and Exports (73) are entered in the respective columns. The quantity of losses occurring during transport and storage can be estimated as a percentage of the Available supply (1960) and shown in the column Waste (59). The total amount of wheat flour available for human consumption (1901), shown in the column Food is the residual of the equation.
Procedure to calculate the Per Caput Food Supply
Step 1: To determine the annual per caput supply of wheat flour (68.8), the figure shown in the column Food (1901) should be divided by the population number (27650).
Step 2: To obtain the daily per caput supply in terms of grams/day (188.4), the amount of the annual per caput supply of wheat flour obtained in Step 1 (68.8) should be divided by 365.
Step 3: To arrive at the daily per caput supply of flour in terms of calories (686), protein (20.5) and fat (2.1), the quantity of the daily per caput supply of wheat flour in terms of grams obtained in Step 2 (188.4) should be multiplied by the food composition factors (364 calories, 10.9% protein, 1.1% fat) listed above under Assumptions.
Rice Paddy
The production figure is entered in the column Production (629). The quantity for Seed (25) estimated on the basis of multiplying the seeding rate (150) with the area sown in the subsequent year (165000) is shown in the column Seed. The same procedure is followed to obtain the estimate to be shown for Waste (19). Since there is generally no direct food use of paddy rice the residual of the equation is allocated to Food Manufacture (585).
Rice Milled
Production (392) of milled rice again can be estimated by multiplying the amount shown under Food Manufacture in the balance for rice paddy (585) with the extraction rate (67%). The figures for Change in stocks (+35) and Imports (77) are entered in the respective columns. The amount of losses can be estimated as a percentage (3%) of the Available supply (350) and shown under Waste (11). The quantity of milled rice available for human consumption is the residual of the equation and entered in the column Food (339).
Figures for Food supply per caput (12.3, 33.6, 121, 2.3, 0.2): see procedure for wheat flour.
Barley
The official production figure is entered under Production (84), the quantity imported under Imports (12) and the estimate for animal feed use of barley as reported by the Ministry of Agriculture under Feed (23). The quantity to be shown under Seed (2) is obtained by multiplying the seeding rate (90) with the area sown in the subsequent year (22000 ha). The amount of barley lost during storage and transport can be estimated as a percentage (3%) of Available supply (96) and shown in the column Waste (3). There is no information regarding direct food use of barley.
A certain amount of barley, however, is further processed: production of pearled barley and malt has been reported. The quantity of barley required to produce these commodities can be estimated on the basis of the extraction rates reported by the milling and brewing industry: around 36000 MT of barley would be needed for the Production of pearled barley (20) and about 32000 MT of barley for the production of malt. It follows that 68000 MT should be shown under Food Manufacture. There is no information regarding losses/waste. The residual of the equation amounts to 3. This figure represents about 3 percent of the Available supply (96) and compares well with information regarding losses as reported for other cereals and could therefore be accepted as an estimate for Waste (3).
Pearl Barley
The official production figure is entered in the column Production (20). There being no reports regarding other supply and utilization elements it must be assumed that production enters human consumption i.e. Food (20).
Figures for Food supply per caput (0.7, 2.0, 7, 0.2): see procedure for wheat flour.
Malt/Barley
The official figures for Production (26) and for Exports (3) are entered in the respective columns. The remaining quantity of malt can be assumed to be used for the production of beer and should be shown under Food Manufacture (23).

Potatoes
The figures for Production (4365), Exports (347) and Animal feed (650) are entered in the balance for potatoes in the respective columns. The quantity of potatoes used for seed can be estimated by multiplying the seeding rate (1500 kgs/ha) with the area (256000 ha). The figure for Waste (522) is obtained as 13 percent of the Available supply (4018). There are no reports about other uses of potatoes (e.g. distilling into alcohol). The residual of the equation can therefore be taken as the amount of potatoes available for human consumption and should be shown under Food (2461).
Figures for Food supply per caput (89.0, 243.9, 171, 4.1, 0.2): see procedure for wheat flour.
Cassava
The figures for Production (3117) and Feed (23) are entered in the respective columns of the balance for cassava. Waste (468) has been calculated as 15 percent of Available supply (3117). The figure shown for Food Manufacture (1860) is a derived figure. Generally the input/output ratio from cassava to flour and starch is 4:1. On the basis of this relationship the figure shown under Food Manufacture (1860) has been estimated (1764 of cassava for production of flour of cassava and 96 of cassava for production of cassava starch). The figure shown under Food (468) is the remainder of the equation.

Sugar Cane
The official production figure is entered in the column Production (5000). The figure shown under Food Manufacture (4960) has been estimated. It represents the amount of sugar cane required for the production of raw (centrifugal) sugar (3272), syrups (318) and non-centrifugal sugar (1370). The remainder of the balance for sugar cane (40) is entered in the Food column and as such compares well with information obtained that less than 1 percent of sugar cane production is sucked directly.
Sugar Beet
The official production figure is entered in the column Production (3100). Since there are no reports about trade or specific domestic utilization it must be assumed that all production is processed into raw sugar and should be repeated under Food Manufacture (3100).
Sugar, Raw
Raw Sugar has been produced from both sugar cane and sugar beet: 360 is derived from sugar cane and 465 from sugar beet. Applying the extraction rates which were given by the sugar industry for raw sugar from sugar cane (11 percent) and from sugar beet (15 percent) 3272 of sugar cane and all the sugar beet (3100) is required for the production of raw sugar (765). The quantities reported for Imports (22) and Animal feed (45) are entered in the respective columns. Waste (24) has been calculated as 3 percent of the Available supply (787). The remaining raw sugar is further processed into refined sugar and shown under Food Manufacture (718).
Sugar, Refined
Production has been calculated as 92 percent of the quantity of raw sugar available for refining (718) and is shown under Production (661). Change in stocks (-45) as reported by the sugar industry and official Exports (12) are entered in the respective columns. Waste (12) has been estimated as 2 percent of Available supply (604). The remainder of the balance represents the quantity of refined sugar available for human consumption and is shown under Food (592).
Figures for Food supply per caput (21.4, 58.7, 22.7): see procedure for wheat flour.
Sugar, Non-centrifugal
Production (137) has been estimated as 10 percent of the quantity of sugar cane (1370) that remains when the amounts of cane required for the Production of raw sugar (3272) and syrups (318) have been deducted from the quantity of sugar cane available for processing (4960). Waste (7) has been estimated as 5 percent of Available supply (137) and Food (130) is the remainder.
