| dc.description | The purpose of this report is to present a description of the FAO's production index and its evolution, published regularly in the FAO Production Yearbook and in the FAO Monthly Bulletin of Statistics, as well as in The State of Food and Agriculture report. The production index is a measure of agricultural output changes, which is calculated at three levels: countries, regions (economic classes, continents), and global. Both the long-term trends and the short-term changes, indicated by the series of production index numbers, are regarded as important information by the data users, since they contribute Lo the assC?ssment and monitoring of agricultural development. National governments, international organizations, commercial establishments and academic research institutions can be mentioned as the main users of this information. | |
