Note by the Secretariat1 
 
Revision  
  1. At the 11 December 2009 meeting of the Comm ittee on Agriculture Special Session, it was 
agreed to renew the request to Members to submit the total value of agricultural production data by 
31 January 2010, in order to assist the ongoing agriculture negotiations.

14 December 2009 the Secretariat asked participants to provide annual data for those years that were 
not included in document TN/AG/S/21/Rev.3, from 1995 to  the most recent year for which data were 
available. 
2. The updates and revisions of the present paper are based on the data submitted by Members 
as response to the Secretariat request of 14 December 2009.3 
3. Table 1 shows the total values of agricultural production in the currency used by the Member 
concerned.  Table 2 shows the total values of ag ricultural production expressed in US dollars as a 
common currency.  Annex 1 contains a general note on exchange rates, and technical notes, including 
sources of data and any explanatory notes provided by Members. 
4. It should be noted that in cases where the Me mber concerned provided the value of total 
agricultural production in domestic support notificat ions as well as in response to the Secretariat 
request, only the most recent data provided have been  used in the following tables.  In some cases, the 
submitted figures do not match the ones notified previously to the Committee. 
5. In the following tables, a blank ("    ") indicates that no information is available for the year in 
question.

General Note 
 
Exchange rates
 
 Where data were provided in domestic currency, th ey were converted into US dollars using the 
exchange rates from the IMF's "International Fina ncial Statistics", except in the case of Chinese 
Taipei where the annual exchange rates were s ourced from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, 
FYR Macedonia where the annual exchange rate for 1995-1998 was sourced from the US Federal 
Reserve, and Ukraine where the annual exchange for 1995 was sourced from the National Bank of 
Ukraine.  The IMF exchange rates are period averages for the relevant calendar, financial or marketing year 
specified in the Schedule or submission  of the Me mber concerned.  For Australia, the exchange rates 
are averages for the period 1 July to 30 June.  For the European Communities of 15 Member States, 
the exchange rates are averages for the period 1 Ju ly to 30 June.  For FYR Macedonia, the exchange 
rate of ECU/US$ was used for 1995-1998.  For Nepal,  the exchange rates are averages for the period 
1 July to 30 June.  For New Zealand, the exch ange rates are averages for the period 1 April to 
31 March.  For South Africa, average calendar y ear (e.g. the second period of the production year) 
exchange rates were used.  In the case of Georgia, the average for the year 1995 is based on the period 
October-December 1995.

 Canada
 
 
For the years 2002-2004, data from the domestic suppor t notifications have been used. As noted in 
Canada's 2005 Value of Production Data Submission to the WTO Secretariat, Canada resubmitted 
data for 1995 to 2001 to take into account its revised methodology for calculating value of production 
for most grains and oilseeds which was established in 2005.  
Methodology for the years 1995-2004 is as follows:  Valu e of production for most products is equal to 
total market receipts (source:  Statistics Canada) plus  price-related direct payments.  For most grains 
and oilseeds, value of production is equal to production multiplied by price (source:  Statistics 
Canada) plus price-related direct payments.  Valu e of production is reported on a crop year basis for 
most grains and oilseeds and on a calendar year basis for all other products.  TN/AG/S/21/Rev.4

The submission of these data is without prejudice to any future data on the value of production that 
Canada might submit, including taking into account how value of production is estimated.

 Total Value of Agricultural Production (Estimate).  The basic and official economic statistics of the 
Republic of Paraguay, prepared and published by the Central Bank of Paraguay (BCP), contain no 
total value of agricultural production that meets th e definition of agricultural products in the WTO  TN/AG/S/21/Rev.4 
 Page 13 
 
 
  Agreement on Agriculture (Annex 1).  The values provided are therefore an approximation worked 
out using official data from the national accounts.  In addition to this problem, it should be noted that  economic statistics in ge neral have considerable 
limitations.  Currently, Paraguay draws up its  national accounts using the conceptual and 
methodological framework of the 1953 version (Revis ion: 2) of the United Nations System of 
National Accounts.  The base year or reference period is 1982, which is per se  outdated and has little 
capacity to represent current charact eristics of the economy, failing to reflect adequately changes in 
the characteristics of agricultural production.  In this connection, with the cooperation of the IADB, 
the BCP is developing a medium-term programme geared to implementing national accounts with 
updated methodological procedures and a new base y ear (1994), which is closer to the current 
circumstances of the Paraguayan economy.  Source:  Drawn up by MAG-CECII using data of the Central Bank of Paraguay (BCP), Directorate of Economic Studies ( Gerencia de Estudios Económicos ), National Accounts and Domestic Market
