Unlocking Insights Through the Updated FAO Agro-informatics Data Sets

The FAO Agro-informatics Data Sets page has been recently updated with new datasets, providing valuable and reliable information to support research, analysis, training activities, and evidence-based decision-making in agriculture and food systems.

The potential users of this platform include researchers, data scientists, policymakers, and practitioners seeking open-access data to inform their work across a wide range of agricultural and food-related domains. The datasets made available cover diverse topics, such as crop production, land use, food markets, and sustainability indicators, enabling a better understanding of both global and regional dynamics.

These datasets are continuously updated, ensuring access to the most recent information available. This allows stakeholders to identify trends, assess challenges, and explore opportunities within agri-food systems, contributing to the design of more robust policies, research projects, and innovation strategies.

The platform offers several key benefits:

  • Support for data-driven decision-making, enabling strategies and interventions to be grounded in solid empirical evidence.

  • Opportunities for cross-sectoral analysis, by combining data from agriculture, livestock, fisheries, environmental monitoring, and economic indicators.

  • Improved collaboration, as open and standardised datasets facilitate knowledge sharing across disciplines and institutions.

  • Enhanced training and capacity building, serving as a practical resource for education, skills development, and analytical learning.

Through the continuous expansion of its agro-informatics resources, the Food and Agriculture Organization reinforces its commitment to transparency, accessibility, and innovation in global food systems. Exploring the newly published datasets can help stakeholders strengthen ongoing initiatives and inspire new lines of inquiry.
