Example Trade Data for Northern America

Description

Simulated trade data for a commodity within Northern America. This dataset illustrates the trade and production flow of a commodity that could serve as a potential pathway for the entry of a pest into Northern American countries. The data is organised in three-month periods within a year. It also includes simulated consumption data of the commodity at at the level of principal sub-national divisions (ISO 3166-2 codes). This dataset serves as a reference on how the data should be structured and provides the basis for the examples included in the qPRAentry package to deal with the ISO 3166 code system (ISO 3166 Maintenance Agency).
