"description":"Agricultural activities have dramatically altered our planet\u2019s land surface. To understand the extent and spatial distribution of these changes, earthstat.org combines a global data set of croplands circa 2000 by combining agricultural inventory data and satellite-derived land cover data. The agricultural inventory data is used to train a land cover classification data set obtained by merging two different satellite-derived products (Boston University\u2019s MODIS-derived land cover product and the GLC2000 data set). The data are presented at 5 min (~10 km) spatial resolution in latitude by longitude. According to the data, there were 15 million km2 of cropland (12% of the Earth\u2019s ice-free land surface) and 28 million km2 of pasture (22%) in the year 2000.",
