Band width is the amount. Bands are coloured by where they start and named at both ends; hover a band for its value. Outside the 7 largest on the left and the 10 largest on the right, flows are grouped as Others; the table lists every one. UN Comtrade, as importers report it: the main flows only, so the totals are of the flows shown, not of all trade. Potash and phosphate are in tonnes of product, not of nutrient.
