This table provides metadata for the actual indicator available from Kyrgyzstan statistics closest to the corresponding global SDG indicator. Please note that even when the global SDG indicator is fully available from Kyrgyz statistics, this table should be consulted for information on national methodology and other Kyrgyz-specific metadata information.

| Definitions |
The Agriculture Orientation Index (AOI) for Government Expenditures is defined as the Agriculture Share of Government Expenditures, divided by the Agriculture Share of GDP, where Agriculture refers to the agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting sector. T
|
| Concepts |
State budget expenditures include all non-recoverable payments, whether they are reimbursable (i.e. paid in exchange for something) or not, and for what purpose - operational activities or acquisition of non-financial assets.
Government expenditure on agriculture includes: sectoral policies and programmes, soil improvement and control of soil degradation, irrigation and water supply for agricultural use, animal health control, livestock research and training, marine or freshwater biological research, afforestation and other forestry projects, etc. Agriculture share in GDP is measured by the ratio of agricultural value added to GDP.
|
| Rationale and interpretation |
An Agriculture Orientation Index (AOI) greater than 1 reflects a higher orientation towards the agriculture sector, which receives a higher share of government spending relative to its contribution to economic value-added. An AOI less than 1 reflects a lower orientation to agriculture, while an AOI equal to 1 reflects neutrality in a government’s orientation to the agriculture sector.
|
| Method of computation |
Computation Method:
AOI = (Agriculture Share of Government Expenditures) / (Agriculture Share of GDP), where
1) Agriculture Share of Government Expenditures = (Central Government Expenditures on Agriculture) /
(Total Central Government Outlays); and
2) Agriculture Share of GDP = (Agriculture Value-Added) / GDP

| Comments and limitations |
Since the numerator of this data is based on administrative sources, there is no confidence interval or standard error associated with government expenditure data. For the denominator, national accounts data typically do not provide any standard error or confidence interval information.
