Crop Simulation Model for Malwa Region Punjab

Abstract

The Crop Simulation Models are used to estimate the crop production of a region by using various parameters like temperature, soil, weather and crop management etc. There are various models for the purpose of estimating crop production of various countries. As DSSAT model, that is developed and used by USA, has a modular design and it is a daily time step model that facilitates the evaluation and application of the crop models for different purposes. But our model is specifically designed for Malwa Region Punjab. It considers various parameters of soil and crop as input and then analyzes the result of estimation of crop yield by checking available weather and soil conditions of that particular area and use a suitable algorithm to estimate the future production of the crop.
