Current Version: 10.81

Service Description:
Combining existing national and sub-national data for both crop yield and fertilizer input. The authors divided the world into areas of similar growing characteristics on the basis of climate, and then calculate potential yield and the factors contributing to yield gaps for 16 major crops: barley, groundnut, maize, millet, oil palm, rapeseed, rice, rye, sorghum, soybean, sugarbeet, sugarcane, sunflower, wheat, cassava and potato. It is estimated that bringing the world's yields to within 95% of their potential for 16 important food and feed crops could increase current production by 58%.
