+# Agricultural Production Dataset Datacard
+
+## Dataset Overview
+
+- **Dataset Name**: Cleaned Agricultural Production Data
+- **Source**: Food and Agriculture organization (FAO)
+- **Dataset Type**: Time-series agricultural statistics
+- **Number of Rows**: ~790,714
+- **Format**: CSV
+- **Size**: [File size]
+
+## Dataset Description
+
+This dataset contains comprehensive agricultural production statistics, including crop and livestock data across different regions and years. The data has been cleaned and processed for analysis.
+
+## Data Dictionary
+
+| Column Name | Data Type | Description |
+|-------------|-----------|-------------|
+| Area | String | Name of the country or region |
+| Item | String | Agricultural product or livestock |
+| Year | Integer | Year of record |
+| Unit | String | Unit of measurement |
+| Area harvested | Float | Area harvested (hectares) |
+| Laying | Float | Number of laying animals |
+| Milk Animals | Float | Number of milk-producing animals |
+| Producing Animals/Slaughtered | Float | Number of animals produced/slaughtered |
+| Production | Float | Quantity produced |
+| Stocks | Float | Quantity in stock |
+| Yield | Float | Yield per unit area |
+| Yield/Carcass Weight | Float | Yield or carcass weight |
+
+## Data Collection
+
+### Source
+
+- **Original Source**: [Original data source]
+- **Processing**: Data has been cleaned and standardized
+
+### Time Period
+
+- **Start Year**: 1961 (based on sample data)
+- **End Year**: [Most recent year in dataset]
+
+### Geographic Coverage
+
+- **Regions**: Global coverage (countries and regions)
+- **Geographic Granularity**: Country/Region level
+
+## Data Quality
+
+### Completeness
+
+- Missing values are present in the dataset and have been handled using the following approach:
+  - For each time series (grouped by Area, Item, and Element), missing values are:
+    1. Forward filled (using the last valid observation)
+    2. Then backward filled (using the next valid observation)
+  - This approach helps maintain the continuity of time series data while preserving trends
+- Some metrics are only applicable to specific item types (e.g., milk animals for dairy products)
+- Certain years or regions may have more missing data than others
+
+### Consistency
+
+- Standardized units across all measurements
+- Consistent naming conventions for countries and crop categories
+- Yearly data points from 1961 to the most recent year available
+- Data has been filtered to include only African countries with standardized names
+
+## Intended Use
+
+This dataset is suitable for:
+
+- Agricultural production trend analysis
+- Regional comparison of agricultural output
+- Time-series analysis of agricultural metrics
+- Research in food security and agricultural economics
+
+## Limitations
+
+1. Some entries may have missing values
+2. Data granularity varies by country and year
+3. Some metrics are only applicable to specific agricultural products
+
+## Ethical Considerations
+
+- Data represents aggregate statistics and does not contain personally identifiable information
+- Users should be aware of potential biases in data collection and reporting across different regions
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+1. Analyzing agricultural production trends over time
+2. Comparing crop yields across different regions
+3. Studying the relationship between agricultural practices and output
