Number_of_Aswaddumized_paddy_parcels.xlsx TOTAL: districts do not sum to the sheet's 'Sri Lanka' row
Number_of_Aswaddumized_paddy_parcels.xlsx, 2013/2014 column: all 27 district rows (including the two settlement-scheme rows) are present and sum to 1,606,426; the sheet's own Sri Lanka row reads 1,661,426, a 55,000-parcel gap with no footnote or asterisked row explaining it.
