Service Description: Croplands cover ~15 million km2 of the earth, providing the majority of the food, feed, and fiber that people depend on. National and sub-national agricultural census records were combined with satellite imagery to map the harvested area and yields for 175 crops circa the year 2000. Data resolution is 5 minute latitude and longitude. Detailed methods and the citation for this data set: Monfreda, C., N. Ramankutty, and J.A. Foley (2008). Farming the planet. Part 2: Geographic distribution of crop areas, yields, physiological types, and net primary production in the year 2000. Global Biogeochemical Cycles 22, GB1022, doi:10.1029/2007GB002947.
