Study Scope

Keywords:

Agricultural Sciences

Abstract:

This is the replication data and code for the "Pilot study: manually recovering US corn and soybean herbicide-use data from peer-reviewed literature". It contains data on herbicide use in US corn and soybean extracted from a systematic review of literature. The code allows to construct a crop-country-year dataset on herbicide use and compare it to a public benchmark dataset.

Country:

United States

Kind of Data:

Data extracted from literature on herbicide use in US corn and soybean

Methodology and Processing

Sources Statement

Data Sources:

The benchmark data used for comparison in the analysis is: U.S. Department of Agriculture, National Agricultural Statistics Service. (2026). Agricultural Chemical Use Program: Field crops. Quick Stats. https://quickstats.nass.usda.gov/ Observations were manually extracted from peer-reviewed articles retrieved via Scopus and Web of Science.
