The CA land area database is updated periodically based on the feedback
received from our regular sources of information. These include: official
government sources, no-till associations, NGOs, national and international
research institutes, and informed individuals. The information is posted in
AquaStat. The latest figures (update 2013) can be seen at the FAO
