      *This is Commodity Explorer Version 4.0. All functions are fully implemented for all Commodity Explorers.
      *Sub-National production percentages are calculated using IFPRI-SPAM (CY2010) data. These sub-national percentages of total production may differ from the displayed percentages in crop production maps because more recent production data from national ministry of agriculture (MoA) or statistic departments were used in the production maps.
