Product level dataset on embodied Human Appropriation of Net Primary Production

The "Human Appropriation of Net Primary Production" (HANPP) offers a framework for quantifying the pressure on ecosystems and biodiversity exerted through land use. The HANPP associated to global trade and final consumption is called “embodied HANPP”. For further explanations about the HANPP and eHANPP indicators, refer to (Haberl, Erb and Krausmann, 2014, DOI: 10.1146/annurev-environ-121912-094620)

This dataset reveals HANPP embodied in global supply chains of agriculture and forestry products, between 222 countries, at the product level for 161 primary crops, 13 primary animal products and 4 primary forestry products, as well as the end uses of these products, for the years 1986 to 2013.

File 1 [embodied_HANPP_all_uses_no_ap_trade_cl_gl_resid_by_feed_products.csv]

Contains HANPP embodied in the bilateral trade of primary crop products (excluding the residues used as feed), roughage and residues used as feed, by end uses (direct human food, animal feed, other uses), between 1986 and 2013. The HANPP embodied in bilateral trade flows of animal feed corresponds to the total trade flow from the country producing the feed to the country producing the animal product.

File 2 [embodied_HANPP _all_uses_incl_ap_all_cl_gl_resid_by_animal_products.csv]

Contains HANPP embodied in the bilateral trade of primary crop products, roughage and residues used as feed, combined to animal products, by end uses (direct human food, animal products, other uses), between 1986 and 2013. Unlike in FILE_NAME1, the HANPP embodied in bilateral trade flows of animal products corresponds to the total trade flow from the feed producing country to the country finally consuming the animal product.

File 3 [trilateral_embodied_HANPP_cl_gl_resid_avg_2011_2013.csv]

Contains HANPP embodied in the trilateral trade of feed crops, roughage and residues used as feed combined to animal products. Because of the size of the data, we only display the average data over the period 2011-2013 (for other years, please contact the authors). Each row represents the HANPP embodied in one combination of feed and animal product trade between a country producing feed, a country producing the animal product, and a country consuming the animal product (for example soybeans produced in Brazil, exported to Germany to produce pig meat, which itself is exported to and consumed in Austria).

File 4 [embodied_HANPP_forest_IRW_and_WF.csv]

Contains HANPP embodied in the bilateral trade of wood and paper products, converted into 4 primary forestry products, between 1997 and 2013 .
