	The GROW-Africa (Groundtruthing Remote-sensing for Optimizing Yield in Africa) ~~Database~~ includes ~~georeferenced~~ observations of crop across Africa for the period 1960-2023. ~~For AGROSTAC~~ the ~~phenology~~ (~~start and end~~) ~~was extracted~~ from ~~the~~ non-LSMS sources~~. These data sources include development agencies, non-profit organizations, and datasets published in the scientific literature~~.		The GROW-Africa (Groundtruthing Remote-sensing for Optimizing Yield in Africa) database includes observations of crop yields across Africa for the period 1960-2023. The data set, selected from GROW-Africa, includes the point-based yield estimates (based on farmer surveys or crop cuts) from non-LSMS (World Bank Living Standards Measurement Study) sources.
