Process-based crop simulation models require employment of new knowledge for continuous improvement. To simulate growth and
development of different genotypes of a given crop, most models use empirical relationships or ...

Using experience with bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea), this paper examines how local
knowledge, genetic evaluation, research in ®elds, glasshouses and laboratories, and crop
simulation modelling might be linked ...

Mechanistic crop growth models have many potential uses for crop

Although there are over 350 000 plant species, fewer than 20 `major' crop species provide for most human food needs. Within the rest of the plant kingdom there remain many hundreds of underutilized food crops that have ...

Crop simulation models can be robust tools to help develop an understanding of a plant’s response to a given set of

weather and soil conditions and the interaction with various crop management scenarios. This study ...
