In SWS-Methodology/faoswsSeed: Package to perform the imputation of seed usage for the FAO seed domain

Description

The data contain seed data from 8 countries, 140 commodities and spanning the years 1994-2013. The countries were not randomly chosen: some were picked because of the availability of area sown variables (which is generally rather rare).

Usage
