About

The FAOSTAT Land Use domain contains data on twenty-one land use categories, twentythree categories of irrigation and agricultural practices and six indicators of land use. The data are collected via the FAO Questionnaire on Land Use, Irrigation and Agricultural Practices, based on the FAO Land Use classification. The information in the Land Use domain is relevant to monitor sustainable and productive agriculture, forestry and fisheries activities at national, regional and global level. Statistics on agricultural land area are an integral component of SDG indicator 2.4.1. Data are available by country and year, covering up to 246 countries and territories, with annual updates. The current dissemination covers the period 1961–2021. Last update was on 2024-02-15.
