Comparison between single and multi-crop methodology in FLAT. How does this affect the output?

kopegios commented 5 years ago

Pilot runs for both single crop (maize) and multi-crop (maize and cassava) for the region of Zambezia in Mozambique in 1 sq km resolution. Model ran successfully in both cases.

Quick validation attempt: compared aggregates in 10x10 vs 1x1 resolution (for maize, approximately 5000 ha difference in outputs)

Single crop evaluation was selected due to complexity rising from processing multiple crops at the same time. Results for different crops will be combined after the irrigation model runs.
