Planted area based on national statistics for 2017–2018 (see Table 1 for sources). Adoption of improved varieties at the national level calculated as the average of the subnational estimates weighted by planted area
^aCalculated over the subnational locations that were surveyed, conservatively assuming zero adoption in all other areas
