How this figure is calculated
Sugar cane — Burning crop residues (Biomass burned, dry matter) divided by Population, total, matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Sugar cane — Burning crop residues (Biomass burned, dry matter) ÷ Population, total
Computed from
- Sugar cane — Burning crop residues 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.
