Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
0.1 % of GDP was the budget support to agriculture in 2021-23, while the Total Support Estimate (TSE) remained negative from -0.8 % in 2000-02 to -1.6 % in 2021-23 (OECD, 2024).
The 1.4% annual growth in agricultural productivity in the OECD between 1991 and 2000 was reduced to 0.85% between 2011 and 2021 (OECD, 2024).
Food value chains support 800 million livelihoods, mostly in small-scale fisheries and aquaculture (Blue Food Assessment, 2021).
Agriculture accounts for 4 percent of the global gross domestic producto (GDP) and in some least developing countries it can account for more than 25 percent of GDP (Blue Food Assessment, 2021).
57% of all agricultural GHG emissions come from nitrous oxide, where agricultural land management practices drive 94%, equivalent to 316 Tg CO2e of total U.S. N2O emissions (USEPA, 2021).
234 Tg CO2e yr-1 represents soil capture capacity with high adoption rates in U.S. agriculture, increasing 1.47 Mg CO2e ha-1 yr-1 over existing practices (Matlock et al., 2024).
3.9% of the 5.5 Gt CO2-eq greenhouse gas emissions from the United States come from animal agriculture (USEPA, 2024).
23,000 million colones in coffee and 1,982 million in rice is the economic impact of the recent rains in Costa Rica (La Nación, 2024).
106 of 141 municipalities in Mato Grosso had some degree of double cropping at the end of the study period in 2013 (Garrett et al., 2018).
79-85% was the reported accuracy for land use and cover maps in Mato Grosso, with a Kappa index of 0.71-0.78 using cross-validation (Garrett et al., 2018).
