model initialization

Hi,
I want to define a point to initialize a simple model of cropland dynamics. I am getting an overflow error now because i think its being initialize in the wrong place. I should have a first shock on crop demand that increses managed land increasing land value and then driving intensification. However, now I think that the intensification loop acts before the land increment shock.
Can you please help me on this ?
thanks !

The model seems to run fine for me - no overflow. Is there a particular test that's problematic?

One useful step at this point would be to get all your units balanced - that might reveal some hidden error in logic.

Hi Tom,
Thanks. Its true. I think is was a problem of calibration, as I have managed to get now a rational behavour.
thanks
