60% of the total soybean area in Mato Grosso was under double cropping system by 2013, increasing from 10% in 2001 (Garrett et al.,2018).
16% was the representation of Mato Grosso, Brazil in South American soybean production (7% overall) and 6% of South American meat production (1% overall) during the 2000-2011 period (Garrett et al., 2018).
65,394 km² of deforestation occurred in Mato Grosso between 2000 and 2011, accounted for 12% of South American deforestation and 3% globally (Garrett et al., 2018).
From 0.12 to 0.29 head per hectare increased the cattle slaughter rate per unit of grazing area in Mato Grosso between 2001-2013 (Garrett et al., 2018).
From 1.2 to 1.5 head of cattle per hectare increased the stocking rate in Mato Grosso during the period 2001-2013 (Garrett et al., 2018).
10-fold increase in the double-cropped area of Mato Grosso (Brazil), from 340,000 ha in 2001 to more than 4.3 million ha in 2013 (Garrett et al., 2018).
4% maintained Mexico in distorting aid between 2001 and 2007, below Canada (6.1%), but higher than United States (3.1%), European Union (2.9%) and Brazil (1.8%) (CEDRSSA, 2015, p. 17).
589.3 million pesos was reported by Mexico as Global Measure of Aid in 2007, representing a low level of utilization of its agricultural sector support capacity (CEDRSSA, 2015, p. 6).
14.8 billion dollars was the base amount of export subsidies from the European Union, reducing to 9.4 billion dollars in 2000, making it the world's largest provider of such support (de Gorter, Ingco, & Ruiz, 2002, p. 4).
488.1 million pesos was the Total Aggregate Aid Measure reported by Mexico in 2005, representing only 1.94 % of the allowed margin and evidencing an underutilization of the instrument (SAGARPA, FAO, & Silva Torrealba, 2007, p. 19).
