From: Adopting yield-improving practices to meet maize demand in Sub-Saharan Africa without cropland expansion

Fig. 1

Trends in a harvested area of maize, sorghum, and millet in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and b average maize yield in SSA, Southeast Asia (SEA), and South America (SAM) between 2000 and 2020. Data from FAOSTAT1. Values in each panel show the rate of a cropland expansion and b yield gain for each crop or region. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
