Head to head

Brazil vs Vietnam, explained

Brazil vs Vietnam, head to head across 117 shared rankings. Brazil ranks higher in 75, Vietnam ranks higher in 42. On that count Brazil comes out ahead overall, though each ranking measures something different, so the detail below matters more than the tally.

Ranking by ranking: in Countries producing the most coffee, Brazil is #1 with 3,387.72 thousand tonnes and Vietnam is #2 with 2,015.29 thousand tonnes (Brazil ahead by 1); in Countries with the largest CO2 emissions from land use change, Brazil is #1 with 1,599.67 million tonnes and Vietnam is #8 with 113.23 million tonnes (Brazil ahead by 7); in Countries with the most cattle, Brazil is #1 with 238.2k thousand animals and Vietnam is #41 with 6,212.2 thousand animals (Brazil ahead by 40); in Countries with the most internal renewable freshwater resources, Brazil is #1 with 5,661 cubic kilometres and Vietnam is #22 with 359.42 cubic kilometres (Brazil ahead by 21); in Countries using the most pesticides, Brazil is #1 with 800.65 thousand tonnes and Vietnam is #7 with 161.91 thousand tonnes (Brazil ahead by 6); in Countries producing the most sugar cane, Brazil is #1 with 759.66 million tonnes and Vietnam is #18 with 11.84 million tonnes (Brazil ahead by 17).

Within each ranking both entries are measured by the same metric from the same source at the same time, which makes every row a like-for-like comparison. Across rankings the metrics differ, so a lead in one does not cancel out a deficit in another. The rank history chart tracks both entries through every published snapshot of the first shared ranking.

Dates shown next to each ranking are the capture dates of the snapshots used, so you always know how current a comparison is. Each entry also has a profile page listing every ranking it appears in, and each ranking has a quiz if you want to test whether you could have named the top 10.

Top10Earth never estimates or edits a value: each number is fetched from its source, hashed, stored and ranked by software, then checked by a quality gate before it is published. If a refresh fails the gate, the previous snapshot stays live and the problem is reviewed by a person.
