Derivation
Crops were coded according to the Indicative Crop Classification (ICC) for 2010. This classification was developed based on the Central Product Classification (CPC) (UN, 2004a). ICC provides only a broad-level structure for the classification of crops. Taking account of national conditions in the Palestine, some crops not included in ICC are identified separately or crops were identified in more detail than given in ICC.
