> it is too long to ask a colleague to review...
I agree. I skimmed the pdf and most of the references are only 10 pages long, but published papers are super short and super hard to read.
It's not my area, so it's difficult to make a good informal review, but some questions anyway:
* Page 12: "The latent normal draws are mapped to uniform by:"
I agree with the math, but in the real word there are no uniform distributions. I expect that the values in the real word follow a normal distribution in a small area or a more complicated distribution with many peaks in a whole country that includes big chunks of farmland and deserts.
* Page 13-14: The explanation of the steps are too detailed. Is there something weird hidden there? Ask a colleague, but you probably must remove 99% of that part and explain it in two lines of text.
* Page 15: "by reducing the Farmers unspent claims proportionaly for every plot claimed by the Greens."
I don't understand why when the Greens buy a plot the Farmers get their buying budget reduced. I expect them to realocate the money to other plots. Is this a common model?
