published June 2010

This tool provides an access to a limited version of the database presented in the OECD-FAO Agricultural Outlook 2009-2019.
For most of the commodity markets analysed in the Outlook, detailed supply and use balances are available, as well as domestic and international commodity prices.
For OECD countries, the data is accompanied by detailed meta-data. In most cases the data is going back to 1970 and extended to the latest year in the projections (currently 2019).
