Phenology indicates the cycle or season of a crop and, in this case, is defined by the dekad (D) corresponding to the start, maximum and end of the growing season. This information can be derived from satellite-based vegetation index time series. Phenology is delivered for a maximum of two growing seasons annually. The phenology for one growing season is therefore delivered as three raster files. The first raster indicates the Start of Season (SOS), the second the Maximum of Season (MOS) and the third represents the End of Season (EOS). With a maximum of 2 growing seasons annually, a full year is described by 6 raster files. The pixel values of the phenology data components are expressed in dekad numbers. The data is provided in near real time from January 2015 to present.

The seasonal Net Biomass Water Productivity expresses the quantity of output (total biomass production) in relation to the total volume of water beneficially consumed (through canopy transpiration) during the growing cycle of the vegetation. Contrary to gross water productivity, net water productivity is particularly useful in monitoring how effectively vegetation (and, more importantly, crops) uses water to develop biomass (and thus yield). The data is provided in near real time from January 2009 to present.
-
Total Biomass Production (TBP) is defined as the sum of the above-ground dry matter produced during the course of the growing season. The seasonal value represents the total accumulated biomass during one growing season, from start of season (SOS) to end of season (EOS). A pixel value of -9997 denotes "out of season". The data is provided in near real time from January 2009 to present.

The Gross Biomass Water Productivity (GBWP) dataset is estimated from seasonal AGBP and ETa derived from Landsat 8 OLI and meteo data, averaged over main growing season (May to October) 2019. The GBWP is computed for the irrigated command areas N2 identified by the ADB project in Nura district, in the Karaghandy region of Kazakhstan.

The Relative Water Deficit dataset represents the water deficit per pixel computed as 1 minus the ratio of ETa over ETx (max crop ET) over the main growing season (May to October) 2019. The RWD is computed for the irrigated command areas N1 identified by the ADB project in Nura district, in the Karaghandy region of Kazakhstan.
