Access to timely, reliable and accurate data on food and agriculture is particularly important to monitor national trends and allow the formulation of decisions on national agricultural and food security policies. For this reason, nationally owned and reliable information systems with indicators on social, economic and natural resources are an indispensable basis for making decisions and to monitor food and agriculture policies. As a response to the declining state of agricultural st atistics in many countries, the CountrySTAT system was implemented by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in 2007. CountrySTAT is a web-based system for food and agriculture statistics at national and sub-national levels. It supports multiple-sourced data integration and harmonization according to international standards and contributes to improve data quality and reliability. The analysis of data for Supply Utilization Accounts and Food Balance Sheets is facilitated in order to obtain derived indicators relevant to nutrition, food and agriculture.

CountrySTAT is a web-based information technology system for food and agriculture statistics at the national and subnational levels. In practice, it acts as a one stop center which centralizes and integrates the data coming from various sources and allows to harmonize it according to international standards while ensuring data quality and reliability. This supports analysis, informed policy-making and monitoring with the goal of eradicating extreme poverty and hunger. Through national and region al CountrySTAT projects, FAO forms partnerships with statistical offices and the ministries of agriculture, fisheries and forestry among others to introduce the system and build the national capacity to use it. In each country, the national government makes a substantial contribution to ensure its deployment and continued training and maintenance.
