The plant commodities we analyzed encompass multiple facets of agriculture, with maize and soy representing annual staple crops, and palm oil, coffee, and roundwood representing longer term cultivation. Trade-off relationships were relatively rare in our datasets, and the majority of our data indicates no correlation, with some notable direct relationships between GHG emissions and other indicators.
