Climate change is one of the major challenges to global agriculture and crop production. In many regions of the world, food security largely depends on major cereal crops. Among these cereal crops, maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the most sensitive staple crops to drought and heat stress induced by climate change, especially when these occur during the ...

Aquacrop, crop water productivity model [PDF]
Intended for agricultural researchers and stakeholders, “Aquacrop” is a crop water productivity model developed and distributed by FAO since 2009. By evaluating different parameters, it enables yields to be improved in an environment where water is ...

Impact of calibration strategy and data on wheat simulation with the DSSAT‐Nwheat model
Abstract Cropping system models (CSMs) are valuable tools for analyzing genotype, environment, and management (G × E × M) interactions in crop production. To apply a CSM in a new region with specific soils, climate, and cultivars, proper calibration and evaluation are required.

Abstract The agricultural sector is the biggest and least efficient water user, accounting for around 80% of total water use in North Africa, which is already strongly impacted by climate change with prolonged drought periods, imposing limitations on irrigation water availability. The objective of this study was to estimate irrigation water use for the

Simulation of potato yield in temperate condition by the AquaCrop model
Abstract Potato production ranks fourth in the world after rice, wheat, and maize and it is highly sensitive to water stress. It is thus very important to implement irrigation management strategies to minimize the effects of water stress under different climate conditions.

Water Footprint of main crops in Austria / Wasser-Fußabdruck wichtiger Nutzpflanzen in Österreich
Water is a key resource for human activities and a critical trigger for the welfare of the whole society. The agricultural sector makes up the main share in global freshwater consumption and is therefore responsible for a large part of the water scarcity
