Methodology

For uncooked pasta, tonnage follows element 5141 and daily grams follow element 665 across 2019 to 2023. A change is measured from the earlier year; none is stated from a zero base. Only countries present in both compared years enter a change. A reported zero is not a blank, and blanks never stand in for zeros. The file holds 176 countries after removing World, regional and aggregate rows; all but one carry 2023 values. The numbers describe food available for human consumption.
