SOLm Model Documentation

SOLm is a mass- and nutrient-flow model capturing the global food system on the level of geographic units (default: countries), linking production, consumption and trade, with the aim to derive and analyse the food system’s input use, outputs and sustainability impacts for a wide range of future or counterfactual current food system scenarios. This section describes SOLm in general terms. Further details are given in the subsequent sections 2 and 3
