At the sub-regional level, average dietary energy supply adequacy is the highest in the Arab
Group with 138 percent in 2014-2016. Considering the adequacy rate of developed countries
which is 136 percent, Arab Group has moderately higher dietary energy supply adequacy than
developed countries. Arab Group is followed by Asian and African Group with 120 percent of
average dietary energy supply adequacy which is slightly lower than the world average. On the
other hand, even though the rate of growth in average dietary energy supply adequacy is higher
in the African Group, it is still below the OIC average.
