How to Update Livestock Data

1. Ensure that you have the most up-to-date CSV file with FAO data in the AFOLU/pop_lvst_raw_data directory.
2. Make sure the file is named FAOSTAT_livestock_data.
3. Make sure your file has a column with the ISO3 country codes. This can be set when downloading the csv from the FAOSTAT website.
4. Run the initial_lvst_preprocessing.py script to update all initial livestock data.
5. You can check the initial_lvst_preprocessing.ipynb notebook to debug the preprocessing code or test new features.

TODO:

• Enable automatic downloading of livestock data via the API.
• The projected data method could be improved with a more robust imputation technique.
• Eliminate the redundant files in the initial lvst data folders.

Comments:

• The groupby methods were elimineted since the crosswalk mapping does not match several FAO categories into a single SISEPUEDE category.

2. Make sure the file is named FAOSTAT_crop_data.
