No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/faostat_data for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Observations from a FAOSTAT domain — the actual numbers, with units, year and data-quality flag. AUTHORITATIVE for “how much did produce in ”, world agricultural trade flows, fertiliser and pesticide use, agricultural emissions and food-balance data. Pass codes from faostat_dimensions: area (country), element (what is measured) and item (the commodity) are all numeric domain-specific codes, not names. Example: domain “QCL”, area “231” (United States of America), element “5510” (production quantity), item “15” (wheat), years “2020,2021,2022”.
