Food trade balance in Tunisia 2008-2021

Tunisia recorded a food trade deficit of around 1.9 billion Tunisian dinars (681 million U.S. dollars) in 2021, the sharpest deficit registered since 2008. A deficit in food trade means that the country relies on food imports and that the local production cannot satisfy the internal demand. Tunisia, along with other countries in North Africa, suffers from high levels of food insecurity.

突尼斯在2021年录得约19亿突尼斯第纳尔（约合6.81亿美元）的食品贸易逆差，这是自2008年以来最严重的逆差。食品贸易逆差意味着该国依赖食品进口，且国内生产无法满足内部需求。突尼斯与其他北非国家一样，面临着高水平的粮食不安全状况。
