The National Food Survey is a continuing source of detailed information on household food consumption in Great Britain. The results of the 1994 survey, expressed as averages of consumption and expenditure per person per week and intakes of nutrients from household food per person per day, are presented in this report. In addition this year the first results are given from an extension to the survey to cover food and drink consumed outside the home, for example not from household supplies. The work also provides estimates of average consumption, expenditure and the nutritional value of food eaten out, classified by the same household characteristics as the main survey and also by personal characteristics such as age and gender. The survey now allows for a comprehensive analysis of the diet of households in Britain.
This report provides information on household food consumption and expenditure data in 1999. It makes comparisons with the previous year and ten years ago as well as looking at developments in respect of eating out and nutrient intakes. Special analyses this year provide information about meat and meat products and fish and fish products. The survey is based on a random sample of 6,000 private households throughout the country. Results for Great Britain as whole are followed by results broken down according to various geographical and household characteristics. Some of the results from this years survey are: expenditure on food and drink eaten out was up 5.2% on 1998 and represents 30% of the combined total of home and eating out expenditure; consumption of fats fell by 5% in 1999; household consumption of fruit was up 17% compared with ten years ago; energy intakes continue to decline from 1740 kcal per person per day in 1998 to 1690 kcal in 1999.
The provision of food for consumers is affected by factors concerned with a variety of disciplines such as technical feasibility, choice and environment. This book explores these factors.
The measurement of food consumption and expenditure is a fundamental component of any analysis of poverty and food security, and hence the importance and timeliness of devoting attention to the topic cannot be overemphasized as the international development community confronts the challenges of monitoring progress in implementing the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. In 2014, the International Household Survey Network published a desk review of the reliability and relevance of survey questions as included in 100 household surveys from low- and middle-income countries. The report was presented in March 2014 at the forty-fifth session of the United Nations Statistical Commission (UNSC), in a seminar organized by the Inter-Agency and Expert Group on Food Security, Agricultural and Rural Statistics (IAEG-AG). The assessment painted a bleak picture in terms of heterogeneity in survey design and overall relevance and reliability of the data being collected. On the positive side, it pointed to many areas in which even marginal changes to survey and questionnaire design could lead to a significant increase in reliability and consequently, great improvements in measurement accuracy. The report, which sparked a lot of interest from development partners and UNSC member countries, prompted IAEG-AG to pursue this area of work with the ultimate objective of developing, validating, and promoting scalable standards for the measurement of food consumption in household surveys. The work started with an expert workshop that took place in Rome in November 2014. Successive versions of the guidelines were drafted and discussed at various IAEG-AG meetings, and in another expert workshop organized in November 2016 in Rome. The guidelines were put together by a joint FAO-World Bank team, with inputs and comments received from representatives of national statistical offices, international organizations, survey practitioners, academics, and experts in different disciplines (statistics, economics, nutrition, food security, and analysis). A list of the main contributors is included in the acknowledgment section. In December 2017 a draft of the guidelines was circulated to 148 National Statistical Offices from low- to high-income countries for comments. The document was revised following that consultation and submitted to UNSC, which endorsed it at its forty-ninth session in March 2018 (under item 3(j) of the agenda, agricultural and rural statistics. The version presented here reflects what was endorsed by the Commission, edited for language. The process received support from the Global Strategy for Agricultural and Rural Statistics. The document is intended to be a reference document for National Statistical Offices, survey practitioners, and national and international agencies designing household surveys that involve the collection of food consumption and expenditure data.
