SOURCES: Index of agricultural production in 1996 - 98 (1989 - 91 = 100); Arable and permanent cropland 2000.; Metric tons of Bananas produced in 2000.; Average production of cereals (1999-2001). Average Production of Cereals refers to the amount of cereals produced in a given country or region each year. Data are reported in thousand metric tons. Cereals include wheat, barley, maize, rye, oats, millet, s; Average production of Cereals (percentage change from 1986-88 to 1996-98); Exports of cotton 2003/2004; Production of cotton 2003/2004, in thousand bales.; Domestic use of cotton 2003/2004; Agricultural labor as a percent of total labor force. Agricultural labor as a percentage of the total labor force is calculated by WRI by dividing the number of agricultural workers by the total number of workers in the labor force. Agricultural labor for; Average production of roots and tubers 1996-1998; Permanent crops in 2000.; Average pesticide use (kg per ha of cropland 2000). Pesticide use, kilograms per hectare, is calculated by WRI by dividing the total pesticide consumption, measured in kilograms of active ingredients, by the total hectares of arable and permanent cropland; Total production of Sorghum, metric tons, 2003/2004; Major agricultural crops and products ; Average production of roots and tubers (percentage change from 1986-88 to 1996-98); Tractors per 1000 Hectares of Cropland is calculated by WRI by dividing the number of tractors in use by the total hectares of arable and permanent cropland. Data for agricultural machinery are reported by country governments through surveys. Individual countries have different methods of data collection.; Number of tractors 2000. Number of tractors in use refers to the total number of wheeled and crawler tractors used in agriculture. Garden tractors are excluded.; Workers per hectare of cropland 2000. Agricultural labor intensity, number of workers per hectare shows the labor input intensity of agricultural systems. It is calculated by WRI by dividing the number of agricultural workers by the number of hectares of arable and permanent cropland. Values vary widely among countries according to labor scarcity, production technologies, costs of energy and machinery, etc.; Yield of Sorghum, Metric tons per hectare, 2003/2004
