The function checkes objects of the class management_df() for internal consistency.
It formally checks the class and the column names.
Additionally, the function checks if dates are consistently increasing
and if all organic amendments, tillage and sowing devices and crops
are in the relevant look-up-tables.
Furthermore, the amount of organic amendments (<100t/ha) and
N fertilizer (<100kgN/ha) application rates per event are checked.
The depth of tillage operations are compared with the min and max depth
from the STIR_value_LUT.
Finally, the order of tillage, sowing and harvest operations are checked
for plausibility (see details for more information).
check_management_df(var_MGMT_data)a test_report list (only returned if some tests failed)
an object of the management_df() class
The order of tillage, sowing and harvest operations are checked with the following assumptions:
after "stubble_cultivation" the following operations are allowed: "stubble_cultivation", "primary_tillage", "seedbed_preparation", "sowing_main_crop", "sowing_cover_crop"
after "primary_tillage" the following operations are allowed: "seedbed_preparation", "sowing_main_crop", "sowing_cover_crop"
after "seedbed_preparation" the following operations are allowed: "stubble_cultivation", "seedbed_preparation", "sowing_main_crop", "sowing_cover_crop"
after "sowing_main_crop" the following operations are allowed: "sowing_main_crop", "harvest_main_crop"
after "sowing_cover_crop" the following operations are allowed: "stubble_cultivation", "primary_tillage", "seedbed_preparation", "sowing_main_crop", "sowing_cover_crop"
after "harvest_main_crop" the following operations are allowed: "harvest_main_crop", "straw_removal", "stubble_cultivation", "primary_tillage", "seedbed_preparation", "sowing_main_crop", "sowing_cover_crop"
after "straw_removal" the following operations are allowed: "harvest_main_crop", "straw_removal", "stubble_cultivation", "primary_tillage", "seedbed_preparation", "sowing_main_crop", "sowing_cover_crop"
Additionally, there are exceptions for potato crops: "bedder" can be used after a "potato_planter" and "mulching" can be applied before a "potato_harvester"
