This function calculates a simple organic matter balance, as currently used in agricultural practice in the Netherlands.For more details, see www.os-balans.nl
calc_sombalance(B_LU_BRP, A_SOM_LOI, A_P_AL, A_P_WA, M_COMPOST, M_GREEN)
(numeric) The crop code from the BRP
(numeric) The percentage organic matter in the soil (%)
(numeric) The P-AL content of the soil (in mg P2O5 per 100g)
(numeric) The P-water content of the soil (in mg P2O5 per Liter)
(numeric) The frequency that compost is applied (every x years)
(boolean) measure. are catch crops sown after main crop (option: TRUE or FALSE)
The estimated soil organic matter balance in kg EOS per ha per year. A numeric value.
