Fas Overview

Fas MCP server connects AI agents to USDA Foreign Agricultural Service Production, Supply and Distribution data through the Pipeworx gateway. Its tools search commodity codes and retrieve production, consumption, stocks, trade totals, and related estimates by commodity, country, and market year. Use Fas for agricultural supply analysis; current trade export and import tools are unavailable, so trade queries should use Pipeworx's Comtrade tools. It supports hosted MCP connections and a local npm stdio bridge.

Primary Use Cases for Fas:
  • Analyze global corn production by market year
  • Compare agricultural consumption and stocks across countries
  • Find PSD codes for commodities before querying data
  • Retrieve country-level supply estimates for a crop
