How this figure is calculated
Agriculture, forestry, and fishing, value added (constant LCU) divided by Land area (sq. km), matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Agriculture, forestry, and fishing, value added (constant LCU) ÷ Land area (sq. km)
Computed from
- Agriculture, forestry, and fishing, value added Country official statistics, National Statistical Organizations and/or Central Banks
- Land area FAOSTAT, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO)
Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
