Evidence: Supports 2023 cereals excluding beer food-energy supply values by nation in kilocalories per person per day.
Values measure per-person daily food energy availability from cereals excluding beer, not household intake or total national supply volume. Shares are omitted because no comparable total is used. The source frame is described as nations after the displayed rows were checked as sovereign nations.
The ranking uses FAOSTAT Food Balance Sheets nation records for cereals excluding beer, food supply in kilocalories per person per day, and 2023. Aggregate reporting groups are excluded where they appear. Values are ordered from highest to lowest and rounded consistently for publication.
All entries use the same FAOSTAT Food Balance Sheets source family, cereals excluding beer category, food-supply measure, unit and 2023 period, supporting a like-for-like nation ranking.
