returns croparea

Usage

calcCroparea(
  sectoral = "kcr",
  physical = TRUE,
  fallow = FALSE,
  cellular = FALSE,
  irrigation = FALSE,
  datasource = "LandInG"
)

Arguments

sectoral

"kcr" MAgPIE items, and "lpj" LPJmL items

physical

if TRUE it returns the physical area, with cropareas of multicropping systems being scaled to match physical areas, if FALSE the area harvested is returned

fallow

if TRUE fallow land is returned as element in crop set

cellular

if TRUE: calculates cellular MAgPIE crop area for all magpie croptypes. Crop area from LUH3 crop types (c3ann, c4ann, c3per, c4per, cnfx) are mapped to MAgpIE crop types using "FAO2LUH2MAG_croptypes" and doing an intermediate step via harvested areas of FAO weight area within a specific LUH crop type to divide into MAgPIE crop types.

irrigation

If true: cellular areas are returned separated into irrigated and rainfed (see setup in calcLUH3)

datasource

Croparea data source (LandInG or FAOLUH). Datasource FAOLUH is deprecated and is only kept for backwards compatibility.

Value

areas of individual crops from FAOSTAT and weight
