Multiple cropping zones under rainfed conditions in currently available land (FGGD)

The FGGD multiple cropping zone map under rainfed conditions on currently available land is a global raster datalayer with a resolution of 5 arc-minutes. Pixels classified as urban, closed forest or irrigated contain negative values. Each remaining pixel contains contains the 2005 version of the suitability index for multiple cropping on the land area of the pixel. The method is described in FAO and IIASA, 2007, Mapping biophysical factors that influence agricultural production and rural vulnerability, by H. von Velthuizen et al.
