520    "The United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA's) 
       Economic Research Service's (ERS) Food Availability Data 
       System includes three distinct but related data series on 
       food and nutrient availability for consumption. 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.
