3 LIST OF KEY STAPLES INCLUDED IN THE STUDY Table 1 gives the list of key staples identified by the study. These have been ranked according to total kilocalorie contribution based on UBOS 2002 production estimates taken from the UBOS 2002 Statistical Abstract. UBOS major crops are those included in 1995/6 and 1999/2000 Crop Survey Modules. Statistical Abstract and Crop Survey Modules are discussed further below (Section 5). The major tradable crops in the list are maize, beans, cooking bananas and rice. Table 1.

This crude comparison ignores both the contribution from foods not included in Table 1 and the effect of imports and exports. The comparison does show a large surplus balance suggesting possible overstatement of production levels. Table 2.
