July 08, 2026

Statement
The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS), in collaboration with the Ministry of Food and Agriculture, has released three publications from the Non-Standard Units Survey (NSUS). Covering Household, Farmgate and Market measurements, the reports provide the first nationally representative evidence on how non-standard units such as olonka tins, margarine tins, heaps, bundles, cups, bottles and size-based classifications can be reliably converted into standard metric measures.
This press release is issued to inform stakeholders, partners, media, and the general public about key updates from the Ghana Statistical Service and to support transparent communication of official data products.
Additional technical notes and supporting tables will be published through official channels where applicable.
