Definition

Quantity of rice as paddy, the unhusked grain as harvested produced in the calendar year, in tonnes, as published in FAOSTAT's crops and livestock products domain. Countries report to FAO through its annual production questionnaire; FAO fills gaps with official publications and its own estimates.

Paddy weight. Milled rice, the measure some other sources use, weighs about two thirds as much. FAO fills gaps in national reporting with its own estimates and imputations, which are marked as estimated, and revises past years when countries send new figures.
