Localisation of livestock systems
Where are the livestock systems located?
Biophysical features
Land cover: CORINE 43 Others: altitude, soils, climate
Selection 7 classes
First location maps
Validation: geo-referenced national/regional databases
Conclusions for the ELPEN system
CORINE Land cover
Scale 1:100.000, 43 classesMinimum mapping element: 25 ha
CORINE Land Cover
From the 43 classes we selected 7 classes:– pastures– land principally occupied by agriculture– annual crops associated with permanent crops– complex cultivation patterns– moors and heath lands– natural grasslands– agro-forestry areas
Validation The Netherlands and England
Analysis of farm geo-referenced statistical data in relation to CORINE land cover data
• Dutch Farm data (Giab 1998)–national level–regional level
• English data (MAFF)
• All livestock holdings are geo-referenced• Overlay of the farm database with CORINE land cover• Result: rules indicating the % of holdings / livestock units that are located per CORINE class in a region
Overlay farm data with CORINE
• Farm 203
• nr of dairy cows: 40
• nr of sheeps: 100
• fodder area: 25 ha
• pasture area: 30 ha
• cadastral area: 60 ha
• etc

From this analysis we can derive regionally specific rules for the location of
different grazing systems
Case study England
• All livestock holdings are geo-referenced• Overlay of this database with CORINE land cover
But we encountered a lot of disclosure problems !And because of the mouth and foot disease crisis:• We worked with provisional data on total number of agricultural holdings per CORINE class

ConclusionsVariation in land cover at national and regional level,
and per livestock type
ELPEN system is a powerful tool to locate livestock systems
since it is able to store and apply these rules
National and regional specific rules are needed to locate livestock systems
If no georeferenced data are available:use regional expert knowledge
