FACCE MACSUR focuses on modelling European agriculture with climate change for food security. The work isorganized in three themes on crop, livestock and trade modeling. The partnership consists of 73 partners from 16 countriesall over Europe. The overarching challenge is to develop a pan-European capability in the development, use andinterpretation of models to perform risk assessments of the impacts of climate change on European agriculture. To addressthis the following challenges must be met:1. Identify and address a range of issues between models in different themes to enable their closer integration includingissues of scale and data processing.2. Train a new generation of scientists to work across models which contribute to greater integration of models. Thischallenge can be described as focusing on the creation of integrated modelers as opposed to integrated models.3. Determine the contribution that can be made to reducing uncertainty over the impacts of climate change on Europeanfood security by adopting integrated models of crop production, animal production and trade.
