Land Productivity and Economic Development: Caloric Suitability vs. Agricultural Suitability [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2015 This paper establishes that the Caloric Suitability Index (CSI) dominates the commonly used measure of agricultural suitability in the examination of the effect of land productivity on comparative economic development. The analysis demonstrates that the agricultural suitability index does not capture the large variation in the potential caloric yield ...

Geomorphological Mapping for Land Suitability Evaluation
KnE Social Sciences, 2022 Geomorphology affects the potential of land. The geomorphological condition of an area has implications for physical characteristics, including: 1) type; 2) material; and 3) processes formed upon it. Understanding land capability allows for the evaluation of land suitability. Classification of land suitability is carried out by combining the results of
