Purpose
That task is part of the work step Build Database.
The GAMS program is called CAPREG. A run comprises data for one Member State only.
It takes the results from "Finish national database" as input, and adds:
- Reginal activity levels and yields
- Input coefficients
- Different type of indicators (economic, social and environmental ones)
- Calibrates the model to the base year
Usage
The different controls steer what parts of the data base are rebuilt:
- Base year: defines the year from which a weitghed three year average is built to calibrate the model.
- First year: the first year of the period for which data are generated. Usually 1984
- Last year: the last year of the period for which data are generated. Currently 2004
- Member States: can be selected by user. The program will run separately per Member States
- Regional Break Down: either "NUTS 2" or "Farm types".
- Re-estimate farm groups from FSS: switch off for normal production runs.
