Abstract: The evaluation of public policies in the field of agricultural and agri-food products is mainly carried out in monetary terms (evaluation of the consumer/producer surplus). Concerning food security, this assessment is mainly done in terms of the quantity of food or caloric intake, possibly disaggregated in some main components (protein, fat, carbohydrates); but the analysis of national nutrient availability is rarely performed. The Reconcil project propose to build a coherent database reconciling, HS6 trade databases such as those of UN/COMTRADE or COMEXT (Eurostat) and food composition tables. This will allow the evaluate trade policies not only with traditional indicators but also to assess the impact on the coverage of people's nutritional needs. The database is available upon request.
