tillage_intensity: Estimate tillage intensity

In SoilManageR: Calculate Soil Management Indicators for Agricultural Practice Assessment

Estimate tillage intensity

Description

Calculates the soil tillage intensity per year. The function takes a management_df as input and returns a STIR value per year in the management_df. Alternatively, it can return a extensive tibble with each operation and their respective STIR values.

Usage

tillage_intensity(var_MGMT_data, extended.output = FALSE)

Arguments

var_MGMT_data	a management_df that contains the management information
extended.output	an optional logical value. Default value is FALSE If FALSE, STIR values are aggregated by year. If TRUE, a tibble with all management operations is returned.

Value

by default, a tibble with STIR values by year is returned. If extended.output = TRUE, a tibble with daily resolution is returned.

• STIR_values_LUT() for the reference data used for tillage operations

• calculate_indicators() to calculate all management indicators for a management_df

• calculate_STIR_tibble() a helper function that calculates the STIR input tibble

Examples

#example that returns annual STIR values
tillage_intensity(EXAMPLE_data)

#example that returns a tibble with all operations that have a STIR value
tillage_intensity(EXAMPLE_data, extended.output = TRUE)
