Data Generation Methodology

This dataset was synthetically generated using:

  1. Reference Sources:

    • FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization) - crop yields, production data
    • NBS (National Bureau of Statistics, Nigeria) - farm characteristics, surveys
    • NiMet (Nigerian Meteorological Agency) - weather patterns
    • FMARD (Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development) - extension guides
    • IITA (International Institute of Tropical Agriculture) - agronomic research

  2. Domain Constraints:

    • Crop calendars and phenology (planting/harvest windows)
    • Agro-ecological zone characteristics (Sahel, Sudan Savanna, Guinea Savanna, Rainforest)
    • Nigeria-specific realities (smallholder dominance, market dynamics, conflict zones)
    • Statistical distributions matching national agricultural patterns

  3. Quality Assurance:

    • Distribution testing (KS test, chi-square)
    • Correlation validation (rainfall-yield, fertilizer-yield, yield-price)
    • Causal consistency (DAG-based generation)
    • Multi-scale coherence (farm → state aggregations)
    • Ethical considerations (representative, unbiased)

See QUALITY_ASSURANCE.md in the repository for full methodology.

Use Cases

  • Machine Learning: Yield prediction, price forecasting, pest detection, supply chain optimization
  • Policy Analysis: Agricultural program evaluation, subsidy impact assessment, food security planning
  • Research: Climate-agriculture interactions, market dynamics, technology adoption patterns
  • Education: Teaching agricultural economics, data science applications in agriculture

Limitations

  • Synthetic data: While grounded in real distributions, individual records are not real observations
  • Simplified dynamics: Some complex interactions (e.g., multi-generational pest populations) are simplified
  • Temporal scope: Covers 2022-2025; may not reflect longer-term trends or future climate scenarios
  • Spatial resolution: State/LGA level; does not capture micro-level heterogeneity within localities
