LINTUL-2 Crop growth model for cassava for both potential and water limited growing conditions

Submitted by marcel.lubbers on
General
Name
LINTUL2 Cassava
Program type
FORTRAN, FST
Available since
Description

The original LINTUL2 model to simulate water-limited production was modified to incorporate the development and growth of cassava under water-limited conditions. The model assumes three development phases as in CROPSIM-Cassava: i) planting to emergence, ii) emergence to first branching, iii) first branching to maturity or harvest.
