04Caveats

Read before you use

What this edition’s numbers are and are not, worked out from the file itself.

The site’s method
  • One year of the 2026 release

    Every year in this series comes from FAO’s 2026 release, recalculated on one method. It can differ from what was first published for 2009.

  • 151 distinct values among 156

    Values are stored exactly as published. 2 countries share 3,362. Countries sharing a value share a position too.

  • The position is ours

    FAO publishes values only. The order here sorts the published values, and the page says so wherever it prints one.

  • Which end is better

    A higher value is the better result.

  • 11 empty cells

    An empty cell means the publisher gave no figure. It is never a zero.
