The Food Balance Sheets of the Food and Agriculture Organization: A Review of Potential Ways to Broaden the Appropriate Uses of the Data FAO suggests that the data may be used to:  observe a country’s food supply and its trends  compare food supply to nutritional requirements for healthy diets  estimate supply/shortage measures evaluate food and nutrition policies  measure the degree of chronic undernutrition  examine changes in diet patterns  investigate relationships between food supplies, famine, and malnutrition  calculate self-sufficiency and import-dependency ratios  set goals for trade and production and project future supply and demand.

Application of the data sets  Research  Monitoring and evaluation  Policy options

Limitations of the data sets  Formation of survey local committees  Organization period of time  Data collection and supervision of field work  Data processing and dissemination  Data validatity, Reliability and authenticity  Timely availability of data sets
