Bio-economic model on benefits of increasing information accuracy in variable rate technologies
(2021)This bio-economic modeling framework assesses the benefits of different sensor approaches to measuring environmental heterogeneity in the field, ranging from the use of satellite imagery to drones and portable N sensors, in variable rate fertilization. The model is described in detail in the following article: Späti, K., Huber, R., & Finger, R. (2021). Benefits of Increasing Information Accuracy in Variable Rate Technologies. Ecological ...Model -
Alpine Land-Use Allocation Model (ALUAM)
(2017)The Alpine Land-Use Allocation Model (ALUAM) is a spatially explicit, agent-based land-use model. The model is calibrated and validated for the Visp region, an inner-alpine mountain area in Switzerland. ALUAM had been used in various scientific case studies addressing climate change, ecosystem service provision and policy evaluation.Model -
FARMIND
(2020)This is an agent-based model for the simulation of farm level decision-making developed by the Agricultural Economics and Policy Group at ETH Zurich (www.aecp.ethz.ch). The model represents each farm as an agent as well as a node in social networks. Each agent chooses a strategy for perform activities based on the satisfaction and uncertainty about its output. A set of activity options is determined for each agent according to the strategy ...Model
