Page 48 - Pig production Romania

Short introduction

 The Tool Global Detector GIS is used for this analysis
(see annex to Chapter 5 for more results)
 This tool combines a large amount of data at grid-level (10x10km) to estimate
the suitability of regions for the production of pigs.
 Data at both grid-level and expert knowledge are combined and weighted to
produce maps that take into account:
● Factors for suitable fodder crop production and pig production
(e.g. climate, suitable land area, water availability)

● Factors for suitable pig production
(e.g. infrastructure, distance to harbours and consumers )
● Minimal, optimal or maximum values

● Expert knowledge
● Weighting of each factor on its contribution to the end result
 Results vary depending on the model settings and the weights given to each factor

 The model settings have been calibrated by an expert on pig production
