<p><strong>Sources of discrepancies:</strong></p>
<p>The WTO does not estimate data. Only data contained in WTO Members&apos; notifications are used. Therefore, there is no difference between country produced data and data available at the WTO.</p>

<p><strong>Data availability:</strong></p>
<p>Cf. latest revision of WTO document series G/AG/GEN/86 (table under section 2.4 &#x2013; Members with shaded cells) for a detailed description of data availability for export subsidies notified by Members with export subsidy reduction commitments.</p>
<p>In addition, 10 developing country Members notified since 1995 the use of export subsidies, pursuant to the provisions of article 9.4 of the Agreement on Agriculture.</p>
<p>Contrary to the information for developed country Members with export subsidy reduction commitments that is available for all notified years, information for developing country Members using export subsidies, pursuant to the provisions of article 9.4 of the Agreement on Agriculture is available only for the years during which these export subsidies were used.</p>
<p><strong>Time series:</strong></p>
<p>Since 1995 </p>
<p><strong>Disaggregation:</strong></p>
<p>The indicator gives country and product based information on the level of applied export subsidies, both in terms of budgetary outlays and quantities.</p>

<p>The WTO does not calculate regional aggregates.</p>
<p>An overall global indicator measuring the total annual applied export subsidies budgetary outlays is calculated by summing all the available data after having converted them into a single currency (US$). </p>
