[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
As we rummage through the annals of scholarly inquiry in search of prior investigations combining agricultural sciences education and petrol consumption, we stumble upon an array of austere works. Smith et al. (2015) examine the agricultural education landscape in various states, including Arkansas, without a whiff of suspicion regarding its potential link to global energy dynamics. Meanwhile, Doe and Jones (2018) painstakingly analyze the complexities of petroleum consumption in developing countries, with nary a nod to the agrarian influences in Guinea-Bissau. These solemn studies, though commendable in their own right, leave us yearning for a more whimsical and unexpected exploration of the enigmatic correlation we seek to unearth.
Turning to non-fiction offerings, "The Omnivore's Dilemma" by Michael Pollan and "Oil, Power, and War: A Dark History" by Matthieu Auzanneau, offer enlightening perspectives on agricultural practices and petroleum's omnipotence in geopolitics. Yet, their scholarly rigor fails to sprinkle our quest with the levity we crave in this peculiar pursuit. On the other hand, "The Grapes of Wrath" by John Steinbeck and "There Will Be Blood" by Upton Sinclair, classic works of fiction with agrarian and oil themes, beckon us with their literary allure, hinting at the potential for unexpected insights lurking within the realms of imagination.
Amidst the academic tomes and literary classics, one cannot overlook the online exuberance that permeates our daily lives. Memes, the glorious manifestations of internet culture, offer a surprising touchpoint to our investigation. The infamous "carrot-and-stick" meme, symbolizing the allure of agricultural bounty juxtaposed with the visceral power of petrol transportation, urges us to consider the potential psychological dimensions underlying our seemingly incongruent variables. Similarly, the "this is fine" meme, portraying a dog surrounded by flames, serves as a poignant reminder of the at-times absurd and precarious nature of the world - a sentiment that resonates deeply with the perplexing correlation we are unraveling.
With this idiosyncratic blend of scholarly austerity, literary intrigue, and internet whimsy, we prepare to plow through the existing literature, bracing ourselves for the unexpected twists and turns that await in our endeavor to cultivate a deeper understanding of the link between agricultural sciences in Arkansas and Guinea-Bissau's fuel fiasco.

[[DISCUSSION]]
The elucidation of a remarkably strong correlation between the number of agricultural sciences teachers in Arkansas and petroleum consumption in Guinea-Bissau has left us scratching our heads - and not just in response to mosquito bites. Our findings have lent an unexpected twist to the often solemn landscape of academic research, proving that even the most unlikely pairings can cultivate groundbreaking insights. So, let's till the fertile ground of scholarly inquiry and delve into the implications and mechanisms underlying this enigmatic correlation.
Our results, as peculiar as they may seem at first glance, find support in the prior research we uncovered. While Smith et al. (2015) and Doe and Jones (2018) approached the subjects of agricultural education and petroleum consumption with admirable gravity, their oversight of the potential interplay between these domains appears as intriguing as a crop circle in a rural field. Similarly, Pollan's musings on the omnivore's dilemma and Auzanneau's chronicles of oil's omnipotence may lack the levity we crave, but their insights into the complex interdependence of agriculture and petroleum lay the groundwork for the unexpected correlation we have unveiled.
As we turn to the unlikeliest sources for inspiration, we harken back to the "carrot-and-stick" meme, perhaps unknowingly foreshadowing our discovery of the allure of agricultural knowledge in propelling petrol consumption. Likewise, the "this is fine" meme, with its whimsical portrayal of the world teetering on the edge of chaos, offers a startlingly apt reflection of the absurdity we confront in this incongruous correlation. In this light, our findings not only challenge conventional wisdom but also beckon us to embrace the whimsy and unexpected in scholarly pursuits.
While our study does not purport to offer a silver bullet explanation for this unlikely connection, it calls for a paradigm shift in how we perceive the interconnections between seemingly disparate domains. Could the cultivation of agricultural knowledge inadvertently fuel the consumption of petroleum, as suggested by our findings? Does the allure of tilling the land carry over into the demand for petroleum products in far-flung corners of the globe? These questions may appear as bewildering as a labyrinthine corn maze, but they prompt us to plow deeper into the fertile fields of interdisciplinary research, unearthing unexpected insights and delightfully absurd correlations along the way.

[[INTRDUCTION]]
The relationship between seemingly unrelated variables has long been a source of fascination for researchers across diverse fields. This study ventures into the unexplored territory of the intersecting realms of agricultural sciences education in Arkansas and petrol consumption in Guinea-Bissau. The intersection of these two distinct domains has yielded unexpected findings that beg for further investigation. While some may view this connection as corny and inconsequential, our research seeks to plow through the underlying factors and unearth the curious correlation that has eluded scholarly scrutiny until now.
As we embark on this journey, it is important to note the context of both Arkansas and Guinea-Bissau in their respective arenas. Arkansas, known for its fertile agricultural lands, takes pride in its robust educational infrastructure supporting the cultivation of knowledge in the agricultural sciences. On the other hand, Guinea-Bissau faces challenges in its energy sector, with a significant dependence on petroleum for fuel consumption. The juxtaposition of these contrasting conditions sets the stage for an investigation that borders on the absurd, yet commands serious attention.
The statistical relationship we have uncovered is remarkable. The correlation coefficient of 0.9012396 between the number of agricultural sciences teachers in Arkansas and petroleum consumption in Guinea-Bissau has left our research team both astounded and scratching our heads. It seems that the roots of this correlation run deep, with a statistically significant p-value of less than 0.01 indicating that this is no mere fluke. While some may view this association as mere coincidental fodder for statistical whimsy, the implications of our findings pose a tantalizing challenge to conventional wisdom.
As we delve into the implications of this unlikely correlation, we are forced to confront the inherent paradox it presents. Could the cultivation of agricultural knowledge truly fuel the consumption of petroleum? Or are we merely sowing the seeds of improbable conjecture in our pursuit of academic inquiry? As we till the soil of data and analysis, it is clear that this intriguing linkage demands a deeper understanding, transcending the boundaries of our conventional thinking.
In the subsequent sections of this paper, we will plow through the theoretical frameworks and empirical evidence, aiming to cultivate a nuanced understanding of this perplexing connection. The implications stretch beyond the realms of agriculture and energy, beckoning scholars and skeptics alike to reappraise their assumptions and ponder the unconventional ties that bind these disparate entities.

Correlation is a measure of how much the variables move together. If it is 0.99, when one goes up the other goes up. If it is 0.02, the connection is very weak or non-existent. If it is -0.99, then when one goes up the other goes down. If it is 1.00, you probably messed up your correlation function.
r2 = 0.8122328 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 81.2% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Petroluem consumption in Guinea-Bissau) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., The number of agricultural sciences teachers in Arkansas) over the 17 years from 2004 through 2020.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 7.9E-7. 0.0000007910986875473406000000
The p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme. More specifically the p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme if we had only tested one pair of variables one time.
But I am a p-villain. I absolutely did not test only one pair of variables one time. I correlated hundreds of millions of pairs of variables. I threw boatloads of data into an industrial-sized blender to find this correlation.
Who is going to stop me? p-value reporting doesn't require me to report how many calculations I had to go through in order to find a low p-value!
On average, you will find a correaltion as strong as 0.9 in 7.9E-5% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 1,264,065 random variables You don't actually need 1 million variables to find a correlation like this one. I don't have that many variables in my database. You can also correlate variables that are not independent. I do this a lot.
p-value calculations are useful for understanding the probability of a result happening by chance. They are most useful when used to highlight the risk of a fluke outcome. For example, if you calculate a p-value of 0.30, the risk that the result is a fluke is high. It is good to know that! But there are lots of ways to get a p-value of less than 0.01, as evidenced by this project.
In this particular case, the values are so extreme as to be meaningless. That's why no one reports p-values with specificity after they drop below 0.01.
Just to be clear: I'm being completely transparent about the calculations. There is no math trickery. This is just how statistics shakes out when you calculate hundreds of millions of random correlations.
with the same 16 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 16 because we have two variables measured over a period of 17 years. It's just the number of years minus ( the number of variables minus one ), which in this case simplifies to the number of years minus one.
you would randomly expect to find a correlation as strong as this one.
[ 0.74, 0.96 ] 95% correlation confidence interval (using the Fisher z-transformation)
The confidence interval is an estimate the range of the value of the correlation coefficient, using the correlation itself as an input. The values are meant to be the low and high end of the correlation coefficient with 95% confidence.
This one is a bit more complciated than the other calculations, but I include it because many people have been pushing for confidence intervals instead of p-value calculations (for example: NEJM. However, if you are dredging data, you can reliably find yourself in the 5%. That's my goal!
All values for the years included above: If I were being very sneaky, I could trim years from the beginning or end of the datasets to increase the correlation on some pairs of variables. I don't do that because there are already plenty of correlations in my database without monkeying with the years.
Still, sometimes one of the variables has more years of data available than the other. This page only shows the overlapping years. To see all the years, click on "See what else correlates with..." link above.

Why this works
- Data dredging: I have 25,153 variables in my database. I compare all these variables against each other to find ones that randomly match up. That's 632,673,409 correlation calculations! This is called “data dredging.” Instead of starting with a hypothesis and testing it, I instead abused the data to see what correlations shake out. It’s a dangerous way to go about analysis, because any sufficiently large dataset will yield strong correlations completely at random.
- Lack of causal connection: There is probably
Because these pages are automatically generated, it's possible that the two variables you are viewing are in fact causually related. I take steps to prevent the obvious ones from showing on the site (I don't let data about the weather in one city correlate with the weather in a neighboring city, for example), but sometimes they still pop up. If they are related, cool! You found a loophole.
no direct connection between these variables, despite what the AI says above. This is exacerbated by the fact that I used "Years" as the base variable. Lots of things happen in a year that are not related to each other! Most studies would use something like "one person" in stead of "one year" to be the "thing" studied. - Observations not independent: For many variables, sequential years are not independent of each other. If a population of people is continuously doing something every day, there is no reason to think they would suddenly change how they are doing that thing on January 1. A simple
Personally I don't find any p-value calculation to be 'simple,' but you know what I mean.
p-value calculation does not take this into account, so mathematically it appears less probable than it really is. - Y-axis doesn't start at zero: I truncated the Y-axes of the graph above. I also used a line graph, which makes the visual connection stand out more than it deserves.
Nothing against line graphs. They are great at telling a story when you have linear data! But visually it is deceptive because the only data is at the points on the graph, not the lines on the graph. In between each point, the data could have been doing anything. Like going for a random walk by itself!
Mathematically what I showed is true, but it is intentionally misleading. Below is the same chart but with both Y-axes starting at zero.
