Description
Summary:Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (2015). Food and Agriculture Organization Statistics: Resources - Fertilizers (Archive) | Country: Iceland | Consumer Item: Ammonia | Agricultural Trade Element: Consumption, 1961-2002. Data-Planet™ Statistical Ready Reference by Conquest Systems, Inc. [Data-file]. Dataset-ID: 067-001-019. Dataset: Presents summary totals of production, import, export, consumption, and price paid by farmers for the three types of fertilizers: nitrogen (N), phosphate (P205), potash (K20), and including complex fertilizers (NP, PK, NK and NPK). Consumption refers to actual deliveries to agriculture by the manufacturers or actual quantity consumed by a country for agriculture production. Non-fertilizer use is assumed to be zero (in the absence of data). The dataset includes data covering 1961-2002. The dataset is not comparable with the Fertilizers dataset covering the period 2002 onwards because of changes in methodology used in preparing data from 2002, including: a change in the underlying fertilizer data methodology; the move to the use of calendar rather than a mixture of calendar and fertilizer year; revised classification of the fertilizer items; the addition of the non-fertilizer use parameter in the fertilizer balance and the use of new data sources for some data. Presented here are time-series and cross-sectional data from the FAOSTAT database of the Food and Agriculture Organization related to the food supply; forestry; agricultural production, prices, and investment; and trade and use of resources, such as fertilizers, land, and pesticides. As available, data are provided for approximately 245 countries and 35 regional areas from 1961 through the present. The data are typically supplied by governments to FAO Statistics through national publications and FAO questionnaires. Official data have sometimes been supplemented with data from unofficial sources and from other national or international agencies or organizations. In particular, for the European Union member countries, with the exception of Spain, data obtained from EUROSTAT have been used. Data are presented, where available, by country and geographic aggregates, as defined by the United Nations. Category: International Relations and Trade, Agriculture and Food Source: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations Established in 1945 as a specialized agency of the United Nations, the Food and Agricultural Organization’s mandate is to raise levels of nutrition, improve agricultural productivity, better the lives of rural populations, and contribute to the growth of the world economy. Staff experts in seven FAO departments serve as a knowledge network to collect, analyze, and disseminate data, sharing policy expertise with member countries and implementing projects and programs throughout the world aimed at achieving rural development and hunger alleviation goals. The Statistics Division of the Food and Agricultural Organization collates and disseminates food and agricultural statistics globally. http://www.fao.org/ Subject: Agriculture, Fertilizers, Agricultural Products, Agricultural Production
