At the sub-regional level, average dietary energy supply adequacy is the highest in the Arab
Group with 123 percent in 2016-2018. Considering the adequacy rate of developed countries
which is 136 percent, Arab Group has moderately lower dietary energy supply adequacy than
developed countries. Arab Group is followed by Asian and African Group with 121 and 116
percent of average dietary energy supply adequacy; respectively. 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 (Figure 26).
