Estimate the potential to contribute to agronomic and environmental challenges in a region for a farm and assess the impact of farm measures taken. A high BBWP score is indicative for the number of opportunities to improve soil quality and land use.

(numeric) The P-saturation index (%)

B_GWP

(boolean) is the field located in a groundwater protected area (options: TRUE or FALSE)

B_AREA_DROUGHT

(boolean) is the field located in an area with high risks for water deficiencies (options: TRUE or FALSE)

B_CT_PSW

(numeric) the critical target for required reduction in P loss from agriculture (kg P / ha) to reach targets of KRW

B_CT_NSW

(numeric) the critical target for required reduction in N loss from agriculture (kg N / ha) to reach targets of KRW

M_DRAIN

(boolean) is there tube drainage present in the field

B_LSW_ID

(character) An unique identifier for each Local Surface Water per field

LSW

(data.table) The averaged soil properties (mean and sd) per Local Surface Water. Can be derived from bbwp_lsw_properties.

measures

(data.table) the measures planned / done per fields

sector

(string) a vector with the farm type given the agricultural sector (options: options: 'dairy', 'arable', 'tree_nursery', 'bulbs')

output

(string) a vector specifying the output type of the function. Options: scores, measures

penalty

(boolean) the option to apply a penalty for high risk BBWP field indicators

B_LS_HYDROCAT

(character) Landscape category for differentiating effect of measures on water buffering. (options: "hoge_gronden", "flanken", "beekdalen", "lokale_laagtes", "polders")

Details

B_SLOPE_DEGREE should be used, for backwards compatibility B_SLOPE can still be used. At least one of the must be used, when both are supplied, B_SLOPE is ignored. LSW is by default a data.table with LSW properties, being calculated from bbwp_lsw_properties. Note that all B_LSW_IDs should be preset in the LSW data.table.
