A Crop Simulation Model for Tef (Eragrostis tef (Zucc.) Trotter)

Abstract: Tef is an Ethiopian staple grain that provides both food security and income for smallholders. As tef is nutritious and gluten free, it is also gaining popularity as a health food. A tef model was calibrated based on the Decision Support System for Agrotechnology Transfer’s (DSSAT) NWheat model and included parameter changes in phenology, photoperiod response, radiation use efficiency, and transpiration efficiency for both standard and elevated atmospheric CO2, based on published literature for tef and other C… Show more

“…Furthermore, Refs. [ 22 , 23 , 27 , 32 ] applied these input data to validate the APSIM model simulation results. Commonly used weather data input for the APSIM model includes daily weather data (highest air temperature, lowest air temperature, solar radiation, precipitation, and rainfall) [ 23 , 26 ], as well as soil water parameters (bulk density, air dryness, drained upper and lower limits, saturated soil water content, and root water extraction coefficient), were needed for the calibration of the APSIM model [ 22 ].…”

“…Researchers around the globe have used DSSAT models for simulating climate change's effect on potential future yield (Araya et al., 2012; Endalew, 2019; Iglesias, 2009; Jiang et al., 2021; Paff & Asseng, 2019). Performance of the DSSAT model for simulating barley phenology, yield, soil water, and climate change effects are documented in many studies (Cammarano et al., 2020; Brogan, 2019; Hlavinka et al., 2010; Rötter et al., 2012).…”

“…The BT of the CFT Tropical Cereals was changed from the original 10 °C to 7.8 °C, which is the base temperature of teff, i.e. the main tropical cereal grown in Ethiopia (Paff & Asseng, 2019). The base temperature of maize was variable between 5 °C and 15 °C, which we set to 10 °C following Ogutu et al (2018).…”
