Abstract: This report describes the findings of the first workshop and associated actions of task L1.4. The findings detailed below, along with the outputs of a second workshop (L1.4-D2) are currently being synthesized into an article for submission as a peer reviewed paper. The work presented here addresses the scientific/conceptual issues related to model linkage.

Abstract: Resources required increasing, resources available decreasing Farm-scale modellers will need to make strategic decisions Single-owner models May continue with additional resources Risk of ‘succession’ problem Community modelling is an alternative Need to continue building a community of farm modellers

Özkan Gülzari, Ş., & Kipling, R. (2017). Understanding the potential of existing models to characterize animal health conditions and estimate greenhouse gas emissions (Vol. 10).
Abstract: The primary objective of this study was to assess the status and priorities for future development in modelling of the impacts of animal health on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It also aimed to facilitate communication between experimental researchers and modellers by defining a list of parameters that are needed to model livestock health and disease, and the impact of health conditions on GHG emissions. The summary presented here provides a brief overview of ongoing work, which the L2.1/L2.2 partners, with support from the Global Research Alliance Animal Health Network (GRA AHN), is currently developing into a paper for publication in a peer reviewed journal.
