Hi @aneetainvestvina,  
I’m not sure if this fully explains your problem, but another user recently pointed out that the maize data we distribute does not match the dataset hosted [here](http://www.earthstat.org/harvested-area-yield-175-crops/), which should be the same. I notice that our rice yield raster also has significantly lower values than that from EarthStat. We are investigating where the discrepancies come from. In the meantime, I would try using the dataset from EarthStat and see if that better matches your expectations.

1. From [http://www.earthstat.org/harvested-area-yield-175-crops/](http://www.earthstat.org/harvested-area-yield-175-crops/), click on the crop name to download the zipped dataset.
2. Unzip and open it. Find the file `rice_YieldPerHectare.tif`.
3. Rename `rice_YieldPerHectare.tif` to `rice_yield_map.tif`.
4. Move `rice_yield_map.tif` into the `observed_yield` folder in the provided model data. It will replace the provided `rice_yield_map.tif` that may be incorrect.
5. Run the model again.
