Wheat growTh Model

A simple wheat growth model taking into account the incoming radiation and the soil water budget has been developped within the project to test various scenarios of irrigation (Duchemin et al., 2005).

Select the different variables of the models with the tick box and view the wheat field developpement along the season by sliding the cursor.

Values are displayed by decades (one average value every 10 days), the abrupt end corresponds to the harvesting.
