Agriculture share of GDP world map

By quantile breakpoints over the 168 countries with data: countries are sorted by value and the classes are cut so each holds a similar number of countries. The method (linear-interpolation quantiles) is fixed and deterministic — the same data always produces the same map, on the page, in the embed and in the MCP tool.

Each country shows its latest available reading — reference year 1990 – 2025 across the 168 countries with data. Because international series publish on different schedules, individual countries can differ by a year or two; the map shows the newest honest value rather than a thinner same-year subset.

Gray means no reading: 8 of the 176 dataset countries report no value for this metric (95.5% coverage). Countries without data occupy no rank and are never filled with an estimate — the legend's “No data” item keeps the gap visible instead of hiding it.

Drag the slider or press play to step through 2002–2025 (about 0.6 seconds per year). The color classes are computed once from the latest year and then stay locked, so the animation compares like with like instead of re-scaling every frame. A country without a reading for the selected year keeps its most recent earlier reading and is marked “data as of YEAR” — sparse metrics such as the Gini index report only a subset of countries in any single year, and the stats line under the map states exactly how many report that year.

Yes. The export buttons render a PNG (2×) or a vector SVG with the map, legend and an attribution line naming the data source and its license, plus Natural Earth (public domain) for the boundaries. The embed page adds a copy-paste iframe for any site.

From the same open dataset as every GlobeVS tool — the #1 value on this map (Somalia, 55.8%) is the same number you get in the country comparison, the rankings table and the country profiles, computed once from the committed pipeline products at build time.
