Crop Production Percentile Model Results

Hi @aneetainvestvina,
I’m not sure if this fully explains your problem, but another user recently pointed out that the maize data we distribute does not match the dataset hosted here, which should be the same. I notice that our rice yield raster also has significantly lower values than that from EarthStat. We are investigating where the discrepancies come from. In the meantime, I would try using the dataset from EarthStat and see if that better matches your expectations.

  1. From http://www.earthstat.org/harvested-area-yield-175-crops/, click on the crop name to download the zipped dataset.
  2. Unzip and open it. Find the file rice_YieldPerHectare.tif.
  3. Rename rice_YieldPerHectare.tif to rice_yield_map.tif.
  4. Move rice_yield_map.tif into the observed_yield folder in the provided model data. It will replace the provided rice_yield_map.tif that may be incorrect.
  5. Run the model again.
