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
