Data underlying the publication: Small-scale and large-scale agriculture across water-scarce and water-abundant regions

Dataset

Description

We aim to estimate the geographic distribution of small-scale and large-scale agriculture across water-scarce and water-abundant regions, their blue and green water consumption, and the water stress (stress from a lack of blue water) and soil fertility stress on their crop. We combined three definitions of small-scale agriculture and used a soil fertility-enhanced crop model to estimate crop production and water consumption. This dataset contains country-level results (55 countries). Code and gridded output will be available upon request. A detailed method description and analysis are under preparation/review. We will update it here upon acceptance.
