As marginal drylands, all project sites share similar environmental constraints such as recurrent droughts,

Variability in per cell classification accuracy is predominantly modelled with land-cover class as the explanatory variable, i.e. with users' accuracies from the error matrix. Logistic regression models were developed to include other explanatory variables: heterogeneity in the 3x3 window around a cell, the size of the patch and the complexity of the landscape in which a cell is located.

Ieder bedrijf produceert afval. Bij bloembollenbedrijven is een groot deel van het afval plantaardig, zoals pelafval, maaisel, stro. Dit afval kan afgevoerd worden. Dat heeft een uitstroom van nutriënten en organische stof van het bedrijf tot gevolg en brengt aanzienlijke kosten met zich mee. Het materiaal kan ook op het eigen bedrijf gecomposteerd worden. Hierdoor worden kosten van afvoer van het materiaal bespaard en kan het materiaal, na compostering, bijdragen aan de organische bemesting van de grond.
