Self-Sufficiency Ratio (SSR) of Selected Agricultural Commodities by Commodity and Year

Table ID: 2E5FSSR0

Indicator Self-Sufficiency Ratio (SSR)
Definition Self-Sufficiency Ratio shows the magnitude of production in relation to domestic utilization. It is the extent to which a country’s supply of commodities is derived from its domestic production or the extent to which a country relies on its own production resources. A ratio of less than 100 percent indicates inadequacy of food production to cope with the demand of the population; equal to 100 percent indicates that food production capacity of the sector is just enough to support the food needs of the population; ratio of greater than 100 percent indicates that local production is more than enough to support the domestic requirements. The higher the ratio, the greater the self-sufficiency. Source of Definition: Unofficial (AIS-National Module : Food Sufficiency and Security and Food and Agriculture Organization)
