About this data
The FAOSTAT Deflators database provides the following selection of price deflator series by country and at regional level: Gross Domestic Product deflator, Gross Fixed Capital Formation deflator, Manufacturing Value-Added deflator, and Agriculture, Forestry, Fishery Valued-Added deflator. In the FAOSTAT Deflators database, all series are derived from the United Nations Statistics Division (UNSD) National Accounts Analysis of Main Aggregates database (UNSD AMA). In particular, the implicit Gross Domestic Product deflator, the implicit Gross Fixed Capital Formation deflator, the implicit value added deflator of Agriculture, Forestry, Fishery and the implicit value added deflator of Manufacturing are obtained by dividing the series in current prices by those in constant 2015 prices (base year).
