Agricultural land use and environmental indicators at 1x1 km grid resolution- Cropping shares


Main Contributors statistical estimation and concept: Markus Kempen, Thomas Heckelei,Wolfgang Britz, Adrian Leip
Main Contributor GAMS coding: Wolfgang Britz, Markus Kempen


The crop shares are estimated based on locally weighted bi-nomimal regression models, using the LUCAS sample as observations, and soil and climatic conditions, slope and altitude as explanatory variables. The forecast from the regression model and its error distribution define the a priori distribution for the Highest Posterior Density estimator, which determines the most probable crop shares per HSMU which simulatneously recover the crop areas reported in the Farm Structure Survey, and exhaust the area of the HSMU.
