The FAOSTAT Land Use domain contains data on forty-four categories of land use, irrigation and agricultural practices and five indicators relevant to monitor agriculture, forestry and fisheries activities at national, regional and global level. Data are available by country and year, with global coverage and annual updates.

The most recent update was in Aug. 2024. IFs have 10 series in total.

Instructions for pulling FAOSTAT, Land Use series

  1. The data can be accessed on the FAOSTAT, Land Use website.
  2. The importing python scripts can be accessed here.
  3. To download the all the data at once, you may click the "All Data Normalized" under "Bulk Downloads" on the FAOSTAT, Land Use website.

Notes for LandTotal and LandArea:

There is no null values in IFsHistSeries. Thus, the null values from original data need to be back filled by the earliest year's value.

Special notes for Kosovo and Serbia:

  1. There is no value for Kosovo from FAOSTAT, Land Use. Thus, we use the resource from CIA, The World Factbook.
  2. Kosovo is a landlocked country. So, we fill the 1.0887 Million Ha for Kosovo from 2008 to 2022 for both LandTotal and LandArea series.
  3. The value for Kosovo in series LandAgri, LandGrazing, LandOther, LandCrop, and LandForest. We will use the information from CIA, The World Factbook to calculate.

  4. Kosovo became independent from Serbia in 2008. Thus, the values for Serbia need to be deducted from the value for Kosovo since 2008 for each series.
