Raster data providing site suitability results for the production of castor throughout Brazil. The pixel value range from 1 (currently not suitable) to 10 (highly suitable) for a suitability ranking in the given pixel location. The site suitability for castor was conducted using data associated with agronomic and disease characteristics. The various characteristics were subject to a weighted overlay analysis in conjunction with an analytical hierarchy process. The raster was the result of these analytics.
