The data serve as popular proxies for actual consumption at the national level for over 200 commodities (e.g., fresh spinach, beef, and eggs). The core Food Availability (FA) data series provides data on the amount of food available, per capita, for human consumption in the United States with data back to 1909 for many commodities. The Loss- Adjusted Food Availability (LAFA) data series is derived from the FA data series by adjusting for food spoilage, plate waste, and other losses to more closely approximate 4 actual intake. The LAFA data provide daily estimates of the per capita availability amounts adjusted for loss (e.g., in pounds, ounces, grams, and gallons as appropriate), calories, and food pattern equivalents (i.e., "servings") of the five major food groups (fruit, vegetables, grains, meat, and dairy) available for consumption plus the amounts of added sugars and sweeteners and added fats and oils available for consumption. This fiscal year, as part of its initiative to systematically review all of its major data series, ERS decided to review the FADS data system. One of the goals of this review is to advance the knowledge and understanding of the measurement and technical aspects of the data supporting FADS so the data can be maintained and improved. Data and Research to Improve the U.S. Food Availability System and Estimates of Food Loss is the summary of a workshop convened by the Committee on National Statistics of the National Research Council and the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institute of Medicine to advance knowledge and understanding of the measurement and technical aspects of the data supporting the LAFA data series so that these data series and subsequent food availability and food loss estimates can be maintained and improved. The workshop considered such issues as the effects of termination of selected Census Bureau and USDA data series on estimates for affected food groups and commodities; the potential for using other data sources, such as scanner data, to improve estimates of food availability; and possible ways to improve the data on food loss at the farm and retail levels and at restaurants. This report considers knowledge gaps, data sources that may be available or could be generated to fill gaps, what can be learned from other countries and international organizations, ways to ensure consistency of treatment of commodities across series, and the most promising opportunities for new data for the various food availability series."--Publisher's description. 588 0 Online resource; title from resource home page (National Academies Press, viewed December 18, 2014). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Food supply|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85050339|xGlobalization|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2007000663|xResearch.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002006576 650 0 Sustainable agriculture|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh87004216|xGlobalization.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2007000663 650 0 Food industry and trade|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85050282|xGlobalization.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2007000663 650 0 Food industry and trade|xSafety measures|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009125347|vCongresses. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001533 650 7 Food supply.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/931196 650 7 Globalization.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/943532 650 7 Research.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1095153 650 7 Sustainable agriculture.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1139712 650 7 Food industry and trade.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/930843 650 7 Food industry and trade|xSafety measures.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/930925 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Conference papers and proceedings.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1423772 655 7 Conference papers and proceedings.|2lcgft|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026068 710 2 National Research Council (U.S.).|bCommittee on National Statistics.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n85155245 710 2 Institute of Medicine (U.S.).|bFood and Nutrition Board. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n88008998 776 08 |iPrint version:|aData and Research to Improve the U.S. Food Availability System and Estimates of Food Loss (Workshop) (2014 : Washington, D.C.).|tData and research to improve the U.S . food availability system and estimates of food loss.|dWashington, D.C. : National Academies Press, [2015]|z0309314178|w(OCoLC)900438293 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=941882|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
