Isn‘t it interesting how Arabs have little Arable land?

Not all agricultural land is created equal, some of that land in Australia is irrigated and quite productive some of it is marginal and just used for sheep and cattle grazing.

I feel like if you wanna see untouched nature in Europe, you’re fucked. Everything is farm land. Except maybe for Scandinavia.

All the GOOD agricultural land in the world.
I can assure you there’s plenty of agriculture being done in many areas that aren’t highlighted.

Don’t trust it for much other than a loose guide. It’s incorrect us information, and data is missing on several countries…

That map shows Wales, the Pennines and the Southern Uplands of Scotland as agricultural land but much of New England as not being that.
Its a real map but I am pretty sure of the lands there are only fit for pasture like sheep and others not listed are pretty productive crop lands.

Should this not be classed as arable and not agricultural ?

There should be 2nd map with land quality, becouse like half of that green land in Europe is realy bad.

Imagine if Russia was 1.4 billion country like India and China

Fun fact: ~80% of all agricultural land is used to grow food that’s then fed to animals reared for human consumption, despite livestock only providing ~19% of global calories and ~32 of protein.

Any land is agricultural land as long as there is water

Interesting how the farmland is in more of Russia than Kazakhstan.  You’d think it’d be the oppositeÂ

Spain always impresses me, how they cultivate in such a dry land.

India would be a desert if there were no Himalayas formed.

Nope, the PNW alone has hundreds of farms, industrial greenhouses and ranches.

You see all of that in the middle of Brazil? That’s all been developed from swamps into prime farmland the past 50 years
Only major W Brazil had in the past 50 years, thanks Embrapa

Africa is 30% larger than whats projected on this map; so it has more arable land.

Sad seeing the encroaching area around the Amazon, even in contrast to other developed nations.
Didn’t ever consider before just how vulnerable in terms of food self sufficiency the island nations of the far east may be.
