Download or read book Crop growth and soil water balance modeling to explore water management options written by Ines, A. V. M.Droogers, P.Makin, I. W.Das Gupta, A. and published by IWMI. This book was released on 2001 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study was on the performance of the decision support system for agrotechnology transfer (DSSAT) and the soil water atmosphere plant (SWAP) under an acid sulphate soil. The comparison of these models was done as a prerequisite to the selection of an appropriate model, which is capable of simulating water management scenarios, water balance and crop growth, to be coupled with an adaptive optimization algorithm that can be used to explore water management options.
