Mozambique - Land use map of 2030 in progressive scenario
The Business as Usual (BAU) scenario projects a future in which historical trends in yield levels and livestock productivity are continued, resulting in a low agricultural productivity. The progressive scenario assumes the implementation of improved agricultural management resulting in a high agricultural productivity. The land use changes for each year towards 2030 were modelled on high resolution by allocating land to a land use class based on the suitability for the specific land use classes. Areas that are not suitable (such as steep slopes) or not allowed (such as conservation areas) to be converted to agricultural land, were excluded. Based on the allocation of land use classes and the maps of excluded areas for bioenergy production (such as forest areas), the land availability for bioenergy crops is determined.
