ABSTRACT

The Commodity Yearbook is intended to provide disaggregated data at the world, regional and country levels for production, trade and consumption in selected agricultural primary commodities and minerals, ores and metals.

During an interval of eight years, the Yearbook was not published due to resource constraints. In response to repeated requests and inquiries from users of commodity statistics, UNCTAD, FAO and the Common Fund for Commodities have decided to again make these data publicly available and have joined their resources to make the publication possible. It is hoped that the Yearbook will be of practical use to governments, industry, universities and other research institutions with an interest in international commodity issues.
