Food availability for consumption in the 2020-2024 period continues to show an excessive and unbalanced food supply. This period coincided with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in a decrease in food availability compared to the previous five-year period (2015-2019). However, the period under analysis also saw the end of restrictions imposed on the general population and the gradual recovery of economic and social activities, resulting in the resumption of food supply chain activity and positive changes in food availability for consumption across almost all food and beverage product groups.

The average daily calorie intake per capita from 2020-2024 remained high at 4,079 kcal, which is twice the recommended amount for an adult of average healthy weight.
