Atmospheric Methane (global) vs US Agriculture Value Added
Atmospheric Methane (global) and US Agriculture Value Added correlate at r = -0.65 over 25 years (1997–2021), p = 4.6e-4. With the time trend removed, r = -0.23. Interpret with caution.
Verdict: Interpret with caution. Much of the apparent link is driven by a shared time trend: r falls from -0.65 to -0.23 once the trend is removed.
