It will soon support a national version, CountrySTAT,for a number of target countries, primarily in sub-saharan Africa.

Major contents include: commodities by country, coutries by commodities, countries ranked in the world by commodity, food production, trade, food supply, supply utilization accounts/food balance domain (sua/fbs) (e.g. production, trade, feed & seed, waste, other utilization, consumption, quantities, calories, proteins, fats), food security, food prices, resources, forestry, fisheries, country data.

The National Agriculture Statistics Service (NASS) is one of the main statistical gathering units of the USDA, and publishes U.S., state, and county level agricultural statistics for many commodities and data series. It covers data on crop production, livestock production, costs and prices, demographics, and environmental aspects of agriculture.Data can be retrieved by commodity, watershed, state, county, nationally, and by year.

U.S. Crop Production (USDA-NASS)

The USDA Crop Production Annual Summary contains annual U.S. data for acreage, yield, and production by crop. It also includes data from the previous two years for each crop. Ranges from grains & hays (e.g. corn, oats, wheat), oil seeds (e.g. canola, soybean, sunflower), cotton, tobacco, sugar crops, dry beans, peas & lentils, potatoes & miscellaneous crops.

GLIPHA
The Global Livestock Production and Health Atlas (GLiPHA), is a user-friendly, highly interactive electronic atlas using the Key Indicator Display System (KIDS) developed by FAO. The atlas provides a scaleable overview of spatial and temporal variation of quantitative information related to animal production and health through the combination of maps, tables and charts.
