Government Expenditure — Africa (FAOSTAT) | Africa (Electric Sheep Africa metadata inventory)

Size category: 10K<n<100K - Formats: parquet - Sector: agriculture_food - Engineered by Electric Sheep Africa

TL;DR

This dataset is part of the Electric Sheep Africa catalog on Hugging Face. It is indexed for African data discovery with standardized metadata, loading guidance, provenance notes, and analyst-oriented context.

What This Dataset Covers

Public datasets help analysts inspect structured evidence, build reproducible workflows, and compare patterns across domains.

Dataset context from the existing Hugging Face card: Government Expenditure — Africa Source: FAOSTAT — Government Expenditure Domain code: IG Publisher: Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Coverage: 49 African countries · 2001–2024 · 30,576 rows Items: 43 · Elements: 7 About FAOSTAT is the world's largest and most comprehensive statistical database on food, agriculture, fisheries, forestry, and rural development.

How To Read This Dataset

Start from the repository files and the dataset viewer when available.
Treat the README context as a fast orientation layer; confirm variable definitions and units in the data files before modeling.
Use explicit country columns when present. When geography is only implied by the title or source metadata, document that assumption in downstream analysis.
Preserve missing values until you have a defensible imputation rule.

Usage

from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("electricsheepafrica/africa-faostat-government-expenditure-ig")
print(ds)

split_name = next(iter(ds))
table = ds[split_name]
print(table.features)
print(table[:3])

Convert To Pandas When Tabular

from datasets import Dataset

first_split = ds[next(iter(ds))]
if isinstance(first_split, Dataset):
    df = first_split.to_pandas()
    print(df.head())

Data Quality Notes

This card was standardized from the Electric Sheep Africa Hugging Face metadata inventory.
Exact schema, row counts, and source files should be inspected in the repository data files.
Metadata gaps from the inventory: country, upstream_publisher.
Do not infer policy meaning from labels alone; confirm definitions, units, and methods in the source material.
