Description: The official implementation of the Global Livestock Environmental Assessment
  Model (GLEAM) of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in R. 
  GLEAM-X provides a modular, transparent framework for simulating livestock production 
  systems and quantifying their environmental impacts.
  Methodological background: MacLeod et al. (2017) "Invited review: A position on the Global
  Livestock Environmental Assessment Model (GLEAM)" <doi:10.1017/S1751731117001847>. Further
