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. Beside each country: its total in the flows shown, then in brackets all its exports or imports that year, from FAOSTAT’s trade figures. FAOSTAT’s detailed trade matrix, as importers report it, cut to each importer’s main suppliers, so the totals are of the flows shown, not of all trade.
