What the Data Shows
This graphic compares nations by sorghum fat supply in 2023. The figures describe food supply or availability in grams per person per day, not directly measured individual intake. Burkina Faso ranks first at 2.93, ahead of Niger at 2.91. Senegal is the final displayed entry at 0.80, putting the leader at about 3.66x the last value.

Data notes & caveats
Values measure per-person daily fat availability from sorghum and sorghum products, not household intake or total national supply volume. Shares are omitted because no comparable total is used. The source frame is described as nations because it can include territories or special reporting areas.
Methodology
The ranking uses FAOSTAT Food Balance Sheets nation records for sorghum and sorghum products, fat supply in grams 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.
Source consistency notes
All entries use the same FAOSTAT Food Balance Sheets source family, sorghum and sorghum products scope, fat-supply measure, unit and 2023 period, supporting a like-for-like nation ranking.
