The category “tropical crops” refers to plants that grow in tropical climates. The database currently classifies agricultural crops in 3 categories (tropical, subtropical, temperate), but several crops belong to more than one of these categories.
The tropics are located between latitude 23.5° north and south of the Equator. These latitudes are called the Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn.
Tropical climates are generally warm to hot year-round. Depending on the location many tropical areas have a dry and wet season.
