The aim of the Carob project is to create reproducible workflows that reshape primary agricultural research data from experiments and surveys into a standard format, and to aggregate individual data sets into larger collections that can be used in further research.
We do this by writing an R script for each individual dataset. Feel free to improve these scripts, or provide new ones through a pull request (see below for more info).
Compiled versions of the dataset can be downloaded from carob-data.org and some will eventually be made available on the carob dataverse.
You can also compile your own version by cloning the repo and running
remotes::install_github("reagro/carobiner")
ff <- carobiner::make_carob(path)
where path
is the folder of the cloned repo (e.g. "d:/github/carob"
)
if you use the data, run carobiner::get_citations(data)
to get references for the data set used.
Contributions are welcomed via pull-requests. The best place to discover new data sets is the Gardian website. See these preliminary guidelines.
