This dimension sorts crops by their basic class, a cereal, a fiber crop or a root vegetable. Wikipedia notes that "a small number of staple crops such as rice, wheat, maize, and sugarcane account for the majority of global production," each belonging to its own distinct class. Browsing by crop class keeps crops grown for a similar purpose grouped together.
