3spire: an agent-based model for exploring aspiration adaptation theory and its implications on smallholder farmers in Ethiopia

3spire: an agent-based model for exploring aspiration adaptation theory and its implications on smallholder farmers in Ethiopia (1.0.0)

3spire is an ABM where farming households make management decisions aimed at satisficing along the aspirational dimensions: food self-sufficiency, income, and leisure. Households decision outcomes depend on their social networks, knowledge, assets, household needs, past management, and climate/market trends

Release Notes
