Agricultural use means the use of land for the purpose of\nagriculture, including for agricultural plantations (i.e. tree stands in\nagricultural production systems such as fruit tree plantations, oil palm\nplantations, olive orchards and agroforestry systems) and set- aside\nagricultural areas, and for rearing livestock. All plantations of relevant\ncommodities other than wood, that is cattle, cocoa, coffee, oil palm,\nrubber, soya are excluded from the forest definition.\n\nThe global map of forest cover was created by combining existing global\nspatial layers (wall-to-wall or global in their scope), e.g. on land cover,\nland use, and tree height. The map aims to represent the state of forest\ncover by 31 December 2020. The global land cover from the ESA World Cover\nproject serves as one baseline layer to define the extent of tree cover for\nyear 2020 at 10 m spatial resolution. In 2024, the global map of forest\ncover 2020 was improved by integrating user feedback, and new or revised\nspatial data layers.\n\nIt now better captures temporally unstocked forests, low-density\ntropical forests, and secondary tropical forests that have regrown for at\nleast five years. Additionally, the exclusion criteria have been enhanced\nto more effectively exclude trees in urban areas, mining sites, wetlands,\nareas with shifting cultivation, and tree plantations. This is achieved by\nutilizing multiple global maps of canopy height, crop area, and specific\ncrop commodity maps to more accurately distinguish forests from trees\nunder agricultural use.\n\nFor direct access and metadata, please consult the JRC\ndata catalogue ([JRC 2024](https://data.jrc.ec.europa.eu/dataset/e554d6fb-6340-45d5-9309-332337e5bc26)).
