Short introduction
The Tool Global Detector GIS is used for this analysis:
This tool combines a large amount of data at grid-level (10x10km) to estimate the
suitability of regions for the production of specific fodder crops.
Data at both grid-level and experts knowledge are combined and weighted to
produce maps.
● Choose factors for suitable fodder crop production (e.g. suitable land
area, water availability)
● Chose factors for suitable pig production (e.g. infrastructure, distance
to harbours)
● Set minimal, optimal or maximum values
● Visually validate with expert knowledge
● Adapt 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.
