Country-level agricultural production indices from FAO's FAOSTAT Production Indices domain (QI): gross and gross per-capita production index numbers (base 2014-2016 = 100) for the Agriculture, Crops, Livestock, Food and Non Food aggregates, ~200 countries and territories, 1961 onward — keyless official bulk download. This repo's intelligence layer: 10-year growth rates for agriculture and food, the within-year agriculture-index rank, and deterministic row hashes. Keyless official bulk download. Who joins this: ag analysts read it against the FAOSTAT production-volumes and crop panels on (area_code, year); macro models use the 10-year growth rates as agriculture-supply-cycle features.

Column	Type	Description
area_code	string	FAOSTAT numeric area code (countries and territories; regional/economic aggregates excluded by design). (unit: string)
area_code_m49	string	UN M49 code for the area, as published by FAOSTAT. (unit: string)
area	string	FAOSTAT area name. (unit: string)
year	integer	Observation year (the panel join key together with area_code). (unit: year)
agri_index	float	FAO element 432 (gross production index, 2014-2016 = 100) for item 2051 Agriculture: the headline agricultural production-growth indicator. (unit: index)
crops_index	float	FAO element 432 (gross production index, 2014-2016 = 100) for item 2041 Crops. (unit: index)
livestock_index	float	FAO element 432 (gross production index, 2014-2016 = 100) for item 2044 Livestock. (unit: index)
food_index	float	FAO element 432 (gross production index, 2014-2016 = 100) for item 2054 Food. (unit: index)
nonfood_index	float	FAO element 432 (gross production index, 2014-2016 = 100) for item 2057 Non Food. (unit: index)
agri_index_pc	float	FAO element 434 (gross per-capita production index, 2014-2016 = 100) for item 2051 Agriculture. (unit: index)
crops_index_pc	float	FAO element 434 (gross per-capita production index, 2014-2016 = 100) for item 2041 Crops. (unit: index)
livestock_index_pc	float	FAO element 434 (gross per-capita production index, 2014-2016 = 100) for item 2044 Livestock. (unit: index)
food_index_pc	float	FAO element 434 (gross per-capita production index, 2014-2016 = 100) for item 2054 Food. (unit: index)
nonfood_index_pc	float	FAO element 434 (gross per-capita production index, 2014-2016 = 100) for item 2057 Non Food. (unit: index)
agri_growth_10y_pct	float	10-year percent change of agri_index (value vs 10 years earlier); null across coverage gaps or a zero base, never imputed. (unit: percent)
food_growth_10y_pct	float	10-year percent change of food_index (value vs 10 years earlier); null across coverage gaps or a zero base, never imputed. (unit: percent)
agri_index_rank	integer	Dense rank of agri_index within the year, 1 = highest index level that year (the fastest expansion since the 2014-2016 base). (unit: rank)
fao_flag	string	FAO observation flag (E = Estimated value; every published cell in this domain is E; unpublished cells are dropped). (unit: string)
row_hash	string	Deterministic 16-hex sha256 of area_code + year + the ten level columns (idempotency key). (unit: string)
