Domestic material consumption (DMC) measures the annual amount of raw materials extracted and used in the national economy, increased by the difference between physical imports and physical exports.

The estimation of DMC is based on data available from different national datasets in the domain of agriculture, forestry, fisheries, mining and energy statistics and foreign trade statistics.

Domestic Material Consumption (DMC), by type of raw material (tonnes) is calculated as: DMC = DE + IM − EX, where: DMC– domestic material consumption; DE – domestic extraction of materials; IM – direct imports; EX– direct exports.
