We don't have data.csv so its still not ***reproducible*** by anyone else. To be reproducible it means that anyone can copy the code in your post, paste it into R and get the same answer.
Suggest you post the output of dput(df) and then post dput <- ...the output you got from dput(df)... Now its reproducible.
