Abstract

Food security is responsible for food availability, access and price stability. Food import is used to ensure availability when local production is inadequate and diversity when local production is not possible. Food import prediction is one of the tools used to ensure food security. In this case study, we analyze Neural Network Forecasting models applied to a food import dataset to understand whether these models, when applied to small time series, perform better than statistical or regression models. And if it is better to use short or long forecast horizons.
