Description

Provide accessible information on local agricultural production to help farmers, merchants and agricultural producers plan their agricultural business by doing market studies of the products, evaluating transportation routes, and helping to decide what, where and when to grow a product. Agricultural Statistics is an interactive platform created by the USDA Caribbean Climate Hub to illustrate the origin and production of Puerto Rico’s main crops. The tool provides information on more than 100 agricultural products, the neighborhoods and municipalities where they are grown, and their production areas and quantities. Area and production statistics are summarized by neighborhood and by year, and can be displayed in map or table format at the island, agricultural region, municipality or neighborhood level. To provide additional information on the crops, the tool also connects each of the crops with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) plants database, which provides taxonomic descriptions and species distribution ranges. A future version of this recently released tool will include projections for future climate scenarios to further support climate change adaptation for producers and merchants. Direct access to the tool in ENGLISH: https://caribbeanclimatehub.org/estadisticasagricolas/?page_id=1292&lang=en# / and in SPANISH (Estadísticas agrícolas): https://caribbeanclimatehub.org/estadisticasagricolas/
