What's in it

Data offered docs-verified: crop and livestock production, area and yield (QCL) · trade matrix, import/export by partner (TM) · food balance sheets, supply and demand for 360+ foods (FBS) · food security indicators (FS) · agrifood systems emissions totals (GT) · crop emissions (GCE) · forest emissions and removals (GF) · emissions intensities (EI) · emissions indicators (EM) · temperature change (ET) · land use (RL) · fertilizers (RFN/RFM/RFB) · pesticides use and trade (RP/RT)
Coverage llm-inferred: Global (country-level FAOSTAT data)
Resolution llm-inferred: Country level (spatial); temporal resolution not stated
Formats docs-verified: xlsx · csv · data dictionary · PDF · docx · HTML (Chart.js) · BibTeX · SKILL.md (skill definition)
Access docs-verified: Skills licensed MIT. Requires the separately installed FAOSTAT MCP server (pip install faostat-mcp) and one-time credential setup. FAOSTAT data terms not stated.

Useful for

Use cases llm-inferred: Agrifood emissions and land-use baseline for an environmental impact or ESG assessment · Fertiliser and pesticide use trends as context for a diffuse pollution or nutrient assessment · Food import dependence and commodity supply risk screening for a project appraisal · Climate-agriculture context (temperature change, forest and land-use trends) for a sustainability report
Audience llm-inferred: environmental consultants · climate and sustainability analysts · policy analysts · GIS analysts

Limitations

Constraints llm-inferred: Depends on the separately installed FAOSTAT MCP server and its credentials · Global, country-level statistics; not UK-focused or sub-national · Update frequency and time coverage not stated in docs · Workflow-based skills, not a data source in their own right · Codex and other platforms need manual copying into a skills directory · Maintenance risk: depends on upstream FAOSTAT MCP and FAOSTAT data availability
