# African-Food-Production-and-Supply--2004-2013
#### PROJECT OVERVIEW
Food production and supply play an important role in providing nutrition and promoting economic growth in Africa.Food security includes the availability, usability, stability, and affordability of food for both people and communities.Human well-being, societal stability, poverty reduction, and sustainable development all rely on food security.
In this project, I will be analyzing two different datasets namely food production and food supply datasets.The dataset was sourced from Food and Agriculture Organization of United Nations website.The two datasets have information about food production and food supply in 45 African countries between (2004 - 2013) respectively.The Population and Country code dataset was sourced from Kaggle.
### PROJECT GOAL
The goal of of this project is to analyze these datasets, and gain insights on African food shortage problems, and producing visuals that can help in making appropriate decisions and ensuring food security in Africa.
### Dataset Features
Food Production Dataset:
1.Country: The name of the country.
2.Item: The name of the produce from each country.
3.Year: The year of production.
4.Value: The quantity of each item, measured in kilotonnes (kt).
Food Supply Dataset:
1.Country: The name of the country.
2.Year: The year of supply.
3.Value: The quantity supplied, measured in kilocalories per person per day (kcal/person/day).
### INSIGHTS FROM THE ANALYSIS
1.Food production in Africa increases yearly. However, apart from the drop in 2007, there was a progress increase in food production from 2008 to 2013.
2.There is a progressive increase in food supply in African countries from 2004 to 2013.
3.The TOP 3 African countries with the highest volume of food production within (2004-2013) are Nigeria, Egypt, & South Africa. However, the BOTTOM 3 African countries Cabo Verde, Sao Tome & Principe and Djibouti produced the least volume of food.
4.The T …
