How this figure is calculated
Roots and Tubers, Total — Gross Production Value (constant 2014-2016 thousand I$) divided by Population, total, matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Roots and Tubers, Total — Gross Production Value (constant 2014-2016 thousand I$) ÷ Population, total
Computed from
- Roots and Tubers, Total — Gross Production Value Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
- Population, total World Population Prospects, United Nations (UN)
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.
