Good Afternoon IMPLAN Staff, I am working on a agricultural production research project and I have encountered a problem. For several of the states, several of the agricultural production sectors (sectors 1 through 19)are not showing up (do not exist) in the model in the event section when I setup activities and I was wandering how I can add a sector (for example sector 4 - fruit farming for Missouri)to the Missouri state model and capture the impact of the industry sales that I enter. I would appreciate any help and assistance with this question and problem. Thank you for your help with this matter. Regards, Dan

  Hello Dan, There are a couple of ways to determine an impact for an industry that does not exist in the model. Analysis-by-Parts (ABP) splits a standard Industry Change impact into two parts: an Industry Spending Pattern to capture the target industry's Intermediate Expenditures and a Labor Income Change to capture the Employee Compensation and Proprietor Income for the target industry. Analysis-by-Parts http://support.implan.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=359 IMPLAN's model customization allows you to add an industry to the model and modify commodity and industry production. Note that adding an industry to the model is not an impact. You will still need to conduct an impact analysis.
