Simulation of Maize Yield under Water Stress with the EPICphase and CROPWAT Models
Agronomy Journal, 2000 Models that simulate the effects of water stress on crop yield can be valuable tools in irrigation. We evaluated the crop growth simulation model EPICphase and the model CROPWAT on their ability to simulate maize (Zea mays L.) grain yield reduction caused by water stress under semiarid conditions.
