Cropland, pasture, range, orchard/vineyard projects:
All projects in this accounting activity use the DayCent model to estimate changes in the soil carbon changes over time and direct N20 emissions as a result of changes in management defined in the scenario. The model is run on every map unit within a field and the report provides a weighted estimate of those emissions across the field. This is done for every field and scenario defined in your project. The more fields and/or scenarios a user defines the longer it will take to generate a report, so COMET-Farm currently caps user inputs at 50 fields; however, this cap will not prevent users from exceeding the recommended field size. For example, a 3 field project ~200 acres total with 6 scenarios takes approximately 6 minutes to generate the report. If you do not generate a report within 15-20 minutes for larger projects, please refresh your page. If the issue persists, you may consider splitting your fields up into different projects.
