Short description: Inspection tool for bioeconomy policy makers. Allows to look at and manage employment, financial and greenhouse gas emission data related to cultivation of crops, forests, and production of added value products from certain raw materials. Interconnects macro, meso and micro scale of bioeconomy. Main measures represented are turnover of bioeconomy, added value and employment, investments, GHG emissions and land use. In addition, location quotient, bioeconomy labour productivity and added value to turnover parameters also are shown as output. There are several changeable parameters available for modelling: Added value products, product price, unit production costs, other costs, discount rate, specific investment in technology, organic land fraction, value chain selection (on/off) and subsidies.
