assessment of aquacrop model for simulating forage maize yield along the furrow
the growth and development of crop models such as aquacrop model is the most important tools for decision-making and predicting crop yields. the aim of this research was to assess aquacrop model for simulating spatial variability of forage maize yield along the furrow. four treatments for calibration and validation of the model were investigated based on the percentage of supplied crop water re...
متن کاملSimulating Inbred-Maize Yields with CERES-IM
Detasseling is the operation that consists of removing the tassels of the female plants prior to silk emergence CERES-Maize, which was designed for simulation of hybrid maize and pollen shed to prevent self-pollination. During this (Zea mays L.), cannot be applied directly to seed-producing inbred maize because of specific field operations and physiological traits of operation, several leaves a...
متن کاملAssessment of the AquaCrop Model for simulating Canola under different irrigation managements in a semiarid area
Field experiments were conducted in 2005-2006 and 2007-2008 and the data were used tocalibrate and validate yield and biomass of AquaCrop Model for canola (Brassica napus l.). Themodel was calibrated with the first year and then was validated with the second year data. Fivewater stress treatments at different growth stages were performed including fully irrigatedduring whole growing period (I1)...
متن کاملDevelopment and evaluation of ordinary least squares regression models for predicting irrigated and rainfed maize and soybean yields
Understanding the relationships between climatic variables and soil physical and chemical properties with crop yields on large scales is critical for evaluating crop productivity to make better assessments of local and regional food security, policy, land and water resource allocation, and management decisions. In this study, ordinary least squares (OLS) regression models were developed to pred...
متن کاملVulnerability of Maize Yields to Droughts in Uganda
Climate projections in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) forecast an increase in the intensity and frequency of droughts with implications for maize production. While studies have examined how maize might be affected at the continental level, there have been few national or sub-national studies of vulnerability. We develop a vulnerability index that combines sensitivity, exposure and adaptive capacity a...
