animals_codes

Format

A tibble where each row corresponds to one live animal CBS item. It contains the following columns:

  • Item_Code: Numeric FAOSTAT item code for the live animal.

  • item_cbs: Name of the CBS item (e.g., "Cattle", "Asses").

  • proc_code: Short process code used internally (e.g., "p092").

  • proc: Descriptive process name (e.g., "Asses").

  • item_cbs_code: Numeric CBS item code (often equal to Item_Code).

  • Farm_class: Broad farm classification grouping the animal. One of "Cattle", "Dairy_cows", "Monogastric", "Sheep_goats", "Bees", "Game".

  • Item_product: Name of the primary product derived from this animal, if applicable (e.g., milk for dairy cows).

  • Item_Code_product: Numeric FAOSTAT code for the associated product item.

  • Liv_prod_cat: Livestock product category the animal belongs to.

  • Graniv_grazers: Broad feeding behaviour classification. One of "Grazers", "Granivores", "Bees", "Game".

  • Livestock_name: Internal livestock identifier used across datasets (e.g., "Cattle", "Dairy_cows", "Asses").

  • Animal_class: Fine-grained animal class, including production type distinctions (e.g., "Broilers", "Hens", "Hogs", "Dairy_cows").

  • Item_FAOmanure: Name of the corresponding FAOSTAT manure management item.

  • Item_Code_FAOmanure: Numeric code of the FAOSTAT manure management item.

  • Cat_Labour: Labour category used in labour-related analyses. One of "Cattle", "Equines", "Dairy_cows", "Birds", "Small_ruminants", "Pigs", "Bees".

  • Cat_FAO1: Top-level FAO category. Currently always "Animal".

  • item_bouwman: Item name used in Bouwman et al. livestock datasets.
