Food availability is calculated using
a supply-disposition approach. Beginning stocks, production and imports are
summed to derive total supply. The net supply is calculated by deducting exports,
manufacturing, waste and ending stocks from the total. The food statistics
program follows a large number of food commodities consumed by Canadians including
dairy products, beverages, eggs, pulses and nuts, sugars and syrups, cereal
products, meats and poultry, fresh and processed fruits, fresh and processed
vegetables, juices, oils and fats, and fish. However, some food products may
not be included.
Waste is estimated
using food available, adjusted for retail, household, cooking and plate loss.
Loss-adjusted data are experimental and are derived from factors used by the
Economic Research Service of the United States Department of Agriculture.
Please see Data, definitions, sources and methods, record no. 3475 for more information.
