FAO Statistical Database Terms of Use

As stated in Article 1 of its Constitution, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (“FAO”) “shall collect, analyse, interpret, and disseminate information related to nutrition, food, and agriculture”. In this regard, FAO creates and maintains corporate statistical databases on topics related to its mandate and encourages their use for statistical, scientific, research and evidence-based decision-making purposes. Accordingly, all FAO corporate statistical databases provide datasets free of charge, in machine-readable format on FAO’s corporate website. They are subject to the Statistical Database terms of use of this agreement (“Database terms”) and the Terms and Conditions regarding the Reuse of Web content, which are incorporated herein by reference.

FAO encourages you to use datasets contained in FAO corporate statistical databases for research, statistical, scientific and evidence-based decision-making purposes. You may access, download, create copies, adapt and re-disseminate datasets subject to these Database terms. Unless specified otherwise in their metadata or webpage, all datasets disseminated through FAO corporate statistical databases (see examples in Annex 1) are licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-4.0 International licence (CC BY 4.0) available here as complemented by the Terms of Use outlined below. In other words, when you access, download, or otherwise extract any data or datasets from these databases, you agree to comply with the terms and conditions of the CC BY 4.0 licence and all terms specified in the additional terms of use outlined below.
