|  | <P>The <B>irrigation shares</B> and yields per crop and 1x1 km cell cluster are statistically estimated | 
|  |  | 
|  | based on a Highest Posterior Density estimator, which ensures the following conditions:</P> | 
|  |  | 
|  | <UL> | 
|  |  | 
|  | <LI><P>The total irrigated area at NUTSIII/NUTSII region reported in the 1999 Farm Structure Survey is recovered</P></LI> | 
|  |  | 
|  | <LI><P>The area weighted average yield per 1x1 km grid cell and crop is identical to the yield found in regional statistics</P></LI> | 
|  |  | 
|  | <LI><P>Average yield per 1x1 km grid cell and crop are a weighted average of the non-irrigated and irrigated potential yields from MARS, multiplied with an identical scaling factor</P></LI> | 
|  |  | 
|  | </UL> | 
|  |  | 
|  | <P>Given the fact that there are more variables to estimate (irrigation shares per crop and <A HREF="/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=capri:concept:HSMU">HSMU</A>, scaling factors for yields per region), the statistical estimator picks the most probable | 
|  |  | 
|  | combination based on minimizing deviations from given information:</P> | 
|  |  | 
|  | <UL> | 
|  |  | 
|  | <LI><P>The reported or average irrigation shares at NUTS II level for selected crops. Where no shares had been reported, those had been estimated based on regression models based | 
|  |  | 
|  | the reported average irrigation shares, and using climate data as explanatory variables.</P></LI> | 
|  |  | 
|  | <LI><P>The average irrigation shares per HSMU, defined from the global irrigation map of FAO</P></LI> | 
|  |  | 
|  | <LI><P>A preferred scaling factor of unity for the crop yields</P></LI> |
