Tables

This dataset is a complement to the "Agricultural Policy Monitoring and Evaluation 2011" publication. It shows estimates of agricultural support for OECD countries as well as some non-member economies. These summary tables, designed specifically to monitor and evaluate the level and composition of agricultural policy support, focus on:

- Producer Support Estimate (PSE), representing transfers granted to producers individually;

- General Service Support Estimate (GSSE), representing transfers granted to producers collectively, i.e. services that benefit agriculture but whose initial incidence is not at the level of individual farmers;

- Consumer Support Estimate (CSE), representing transfers granted to consumers. The CSE is almost always negative because transfers from consumers due to market price support policies outweigh any consumption subsidies from taxpayers that might be granted to consumers.

- Total Support Estimate (TSE), representing the sum of the three above-mentioned components, adjusted for double-counting given that some market price transfers are accounted for in both the PSE and CSE.

The value of those transfers are further analyzed by looking at their relative share in agricultural support, in agricultural economy and in the economy as a whole, together with other indicators such as Nominal Assistance Coefficient (NAC) and Nominal Protection Coefficient (NPC).

This dataset provides an access to a limited version of the database presented in the OECD-FAO Agricultural Outlook 2011-2020. The table contains projections on the agriculture market while analyzing commodities such as oilseeds, cereals, diary products and more. It also includes comprehensive statistics on the trade side including data on production,prices, trade balance, ending stocks, consumption ratio and more. For most of the commodity markets analysed in the Outlook, detailed supply and use balances are available, as well as domestic and international commodity prices. In most cases the data is going back to 1970 and extended to the latest year in the projections (currently 2020).
