We provide professional reports that not only give the results, but also explain how they were achieved and analyse what they mean. This service will be helpful to anyone involved in the debate on the future of agricultural policies, environment and market conditions, and to those working in the industry. The model is also used by agencies and departments of the government. The model can be used both on experimental exercises and to help determine policy. Recent projects examined the impact of climate change on land use, and estimated the effect of agricultural policy changes on rural employment levels.
Work is also underway to further integrate environmental impacts into the results.
